另一种选择是像这样在构造函数中使用默认参数

class Student {

    private $id;
    private $name;
    //...

    public function __construct($id, $row=array()) {
        $this->id = $id;
        foreach($row as $key => $value) $this->$key = $value;
    }
}

这意味着你需要实例化一行像这样:$student = new student ($row['id']， $row)，但保持你的构造函数漂亮和干净。

另一方面，如果你想利用多态性，那么你可以创建两个类，像这样:

class Student {

    public function __construct($row) {
         foreach($row as $key => $value) $this->$key = $value;
    }
}

class EmptyStudent extends Student {

    public function __construct($id) {
        parent::__construct(array('id' => $id));
    }
}

Kris的解决方案真的很好，但我更喜欢工厂和流畅风格的混合:

<?php

class Student
{

    protected $firstName;
    protected $lastName;
    // etc.

    /**
     * Constructor
     */
    public function __construct() {
        // allocate your stuff
    }

    /**
     * Static constructor / factory
     */
    public static function create() {
        return new self();
    }

    /**
     * FirstName setter - fluent style
     */
    public function setFirstName($firstName) {
        $this->firstName = $firstName;
        return $this;
    }

    /**
     * LastName setter - fluent style
     */
    public function setLastName($lastName) {
        $this->lastName = $lastName;
        return $this;
    }

}

// create instance
$student= Student::create()->setFirstName("John")->setLastName("Doe");

// see result
var_dump($student);
?>

为了回应Kris的最佳答案(顺便说一句，他帮助我设计了自己的课程)，这里有一个修改过的版本，供那些可能会觉得有用的人使用。包括用于从任何列中进行选择和从数组中转储对象数据的方法。干杯!

public function __construct() {
    $this -> id = 0;
    //...
}

public static function Exists($id) {
    if (!$id) return false;
    $id = (int)$id;
    if ($id <= 0) return false;
    $mysqli = Mysql::Connect();
    if (mysqli_num_rows(mysqli_query($mysqli, "SELECT id FROM users WHERE id = " . $id)) == 1) return true;
    return false;
}

public static function FromId($id) {
    $u = new self();
    if (!$u -> FillFromColumn("id", $id)) return false;
    return $u;
}

public static function FromColumn($column, $value) {
    $u = new self();
    if (!$u -> FillFromColumn($column, $value)) return false;
    return $u;
}

public static function FromArray($row = array()) {
    if (!is_array($row) || $row == array()) return false;
    $u = new self();
    $u -> FillFromArray($row);
    return $u;
}

protected function FillFromColumn($column, $value) {
    $mysqli = Mysql::Connect();
    //Assuming we're only allowed to specified EXISTENT columns
    $result = mysqli_query($mysqli, "SELECT * FROM users WHERE " . $column . " = '" . $value . "'");
    $count = mysqli_num_rows($result);
    if ($count == 0) return false;
    $row = mysqli_fetch_assoc($result);
    $this -> FillFromArray($row);
}

protected function FillFromArray(array $row) {
    foreach($row as $i => $v) {
        if (isset($this -> $i)) {
            $this -> $i = $v;
        }
    }
}

public function ToArray() {
    $m = array();
    foreach ($this as $i => $v) {
        $m[$i] = $v;    
    }
    return $m;
}

public function Dump() {
    print_r("<PRE>");
    print_r($this -> ToArray());
    print_r("</PRE>");  
}

从PHP 8开始，我们可以使用命名参数:

class Student {

  protected int $id;
  protected string $name;

  public function __construct(int $id = null, string $name = null, array $row_from_database = null) {
    if ($id !== null && $name !== null && $row_from_database === null) {
      $this->id = $id;
      $this->name = $name;
    } elseif ($id === null && $name === null
        && $row_from_database !== null
        && array_keys($row_from_database) === [ 'id', 'name' ]
        && is_int($row_from_database['id'])
        && is_string($row_from_database['name'])) {
      $this->id = $row_from_database['id'];
      $this->name = $row_from_database['name'];
    } else {
      throw new InvalidArgumentException('Invalid arguments');
    }
  }

}

$student1 = new Student(id: 3, name: 'abc');
$student2 = new Student(row_from_database: [ 'id' => 4, 'name' => 'def' ]);

通过适当的检查，可以排除无效的参数组合，这样创建的实例在构造函数的末尾是一个有效的实例(但错误只会在运行时检测到)。

在创建具有不同签名的多个构造函数时，我也面临着同样的问题，但不幸的是，PHP没有提供直接的方法来这样做。然而，我发现了一个技巧来克服它。希望也适用于你们所有人。

    <?PHP

    class Animal
    {

      public function __construct()
      {
        $arguments = func_get_args();
        $numberOfArguments = func_num_args();

        if (method_exists($this, $function = '__construct'.$numberOfArguments)) {
            call_user_func_array(array($this, $function), $arguments);
        }
    }
   
    public function __construct1($a1)
    {
        echo('__construct with 1 param called: '.$a1.PHP_EOL);
    }
   
    public function __construct2($a1, $a2)
    {
        echo('__construct with 2 params called: '.$a1.','.$a2.PHP_EOL);
    }
   
    public function __construct3($a1, $a2, $a3)
    {
        echo('__construct with 3 params called: '.$a1.','.$a2.','.$a3.PHP_EOL);
    }
}

$o = new Animal('sheep');
$o = new Animal('sheep','cat');
$o = new Animal('sheep','cat','dog');

// __construct with 1 param called: sheep
// __construct with 2 params called: sheep,cat
// __construct with 3 params called: sheep,cat,dog

你可以这样做:

public function __construct($param)
{
    if(is_int($param)) {
         $this->id = $param;
    } elseif(is_object($param)) {
     // do something else
    }
 }
