When an object has a "main" many relation with related "things" (objects,
parameters, ...), the method names are normalized:
* get()
* set()
* all()
* replace()
* remove()
* clear()
* isEmpty()
* add()
* register()
* count()
* keys()
The classes below follow this method naming convention:
* BrowserKit\CookieJar -> Cookie
* BrowserKit\History -> Request
* Console\Application -> Command
* Console\Application\Helper\HelperSet -> HelperInterface
* DependencyInjection\Container -> services
* DependencyInjection\ContainerBuilder -> services
* DependencyInjection\ParameterBag\ParameterBag -> parameters
* DependencyInjection\ParameterBag\FrozenParameterBag -> parameters
* DomCrawler\Form -> FormField
* EventDispatcher\Event -> parameters
* Form\FieldGroup -> Field
* HttpFoundation\HeaderBag -> headers
* HttpFoundation\ParameterBag -> parameters
* HttpFoundation\Session -> attributes
* HttpKernel\Profiler\Profiler -> DataCollectorInterface
* Routing\RouteCollection -> Route
* Security\Authentication\AuthenticationProviderManager -> AuthenticationProviderInterface
* Templating\Engine -> HelperInterface
* Translation\MessageCatalogue -> messages
The usage of these methods are only allowed when it is clear that there is a
main relation:
* a CookieJar has many Cookies;
* a Container has many services and many parameters (as services is the main
relation, we use the naming convention for this relation);
* a Console Input has many arguments and many options. There is no "main"
relation, and so the naming convention does not apply.
For many relations where the convention does not apply, the following methods
must be used instead (where XXX is the name of the related thing):
* get() -> getXXX()
* set() -> setXXX()
* all() -> getXXXs()
* replace() -> setXXXs()
* remove() -> removeXXX()
* clear() -> clearXXX()
* isEmpty() -> isEmptyXXX()
* add() -> addXXX()
* register() -> registerXXX()
* count() -> countXXX()
* keys()
* removed the __call() method in Container: it means that now, there is only
one way to get a service: via the get() method;
* removed the $shared variable in the dumped Container classes (we now use
the $services variable from the parent class directly -- this is where we
have a performance improvement);
* optimized the PHP Dumper output.
This is the case for instance when you pass a variable to a template like this:
new SafeDecorator($var);
and in the template, you pass it again to another embedded template:
$view->render('...', array('var' => $var);
The second time, $var will be escaped as the SafeDecorator wrapper will have been removed
by the escaper.
