最后，PHP 7.1+给出了一个不能被重写的常量。

/**
 * An interface that groups HTTP Accept: header Media Types in one place.
 */
interface MediaTypes
{
    /**
    * Now, if you have to use these same constants with another class, you can
    * without creating funky inheritance / is-a relationships.
    * Also, this gets around the single inheritance limitation.
    */

    public const HTML = 'text/html';
    public const JSON = 'application/json';
    public const XML = 'application/xml';
    public const TEXT = 'text/plain';
}

/**
 * An generic request class.
 */
abstract class Request
{
    // Why not put the constants here?
    // 1) The logical reuse issue.
    // 2) Single Inheritance.
    // 3) Overriding is possible.

    // Why put class constants here?
    // 1) The constant value will not be necessary in other class families.
}

/**
 * An incoming / server-side HTTP request class.
 */
class HttpRequest extends Request implements MediaTypes
{
    // This class can implement groups of constants as necessary.
}

如果您使用的是名称空间，那么代码补全应该可以工作。

但是，这样做将失去在类族(protected)或单独在类(private)中隐藏常量的能力。根据定义，接口中的所有内容都是公共的。

更新:

PHP 8.1现在有了枚举。

我在github上找到了这个库，我认为它提供了一个非常不错的答案。

PHP枚举实现灵感来自脾

你可以输入:function setAction(Action $ Action) { 你可以用方法丰富枚举(例如format, parse，…) 您可以扩展枚举以添加新值(将枚举设置为final以防止出现这种情况) 您可以得到所有可能值的列表(见下面)

宣言

<?php
use MyCLabs\Enum\Enum;

/**
 * Action enum
 */
class Action extends Enum
{
    const VIEW = 'view';
    const EDIT = 'edit';
}

使用

<?php
$action = new Action(Action::VIEW);

// or
$action = Action::VIEW();

类型提示枚举值:

<?php
function setAction(Action $action) {
    // ...
}

这里的其他一些答案中缺少的一个方面是使用带有类型提示的枚举的方法。

如果您将枚举定义为抽象类中的一组常量，例如。

abstract class ShirtSize {
    public const SMALL = 1;
    public const MEDIUM = 2;
    public const LARGE = 3;
}

那么你就不能在函数参数中输入提示，一方面是因为它是不可实例化的，另一方面是因为ShirtSize::SMALL的类型是int，而不是ShirtSize。

这就是为什么PHP中的本地枚举比我们能想到的任何东西都要好得多。但是，我们可以通过保留一个表示枚举值的私有属性来近似枚举，然后将该属性的初始化限制为预定义的常量。为了防止枚举被任意实例化(没有白名单类型检查的开销)，我们将构造函数设为private。

class ShirtSize {
    private $size;
    private function __construct ($size) {
        $this->size = $size;
    }
    public function equals (ShirtSize $s) {
        return $this->size === $s->size;
    }
    public static function SMALL () { return new self(1); }
    public static function MEDIUM () { return new self(2); }
    public static function LARGE () { return new self(3); }
}

然后我们可以像这样使用ShirtSize:

function sizeIsAvailable ($productId, ShirtSize $size) {
    // business magic
}
if(sizeIsAvailable($_GET["id"], ShirtSize::LARGE())) {
    echo "Available";
} else {
    echo "Out of stock.";
}
$s2 = ShirtSize::SMALL();
$s3 = ShirtSize::MEDIUM();
echo $s2->equals($s3) ? "SMALL == MEDIUM" : "SMALL != MEDIUM";

这样，从用户的角度来看，最大的区别是必须在常量的名称上附加一个()。

一个缺点是===(比较对象是否相等)将在==返回true时返回false。出于这个原因，最好提供一个equals方法，这样用户就不必记得使用==和not ===来比较两个enum值。

编辑:现有的几个答案非常相似，特别是:https://stackoverflow.com/a/25526473/2407870。

基于此要点，所有枚举的基类:

abstract class Enum {
    protected $val;

    protected function __construct($arg) {
        $this->val = $arg;
    }

    public function __toString() {
        return $this->val;
    }

    public function __set($arg1, $arg2) {
        throw new Exception("enum does not have property");
    }

    public function __get($arg1) {
        throw new Exception("enum does not have property");
    }

    // not really needed
    public function __call($arg1, $arg2) {
        throw new Exception("enum does not have method");
    }

    // not really needed
    static public function __callStatic($arg1, $arg2) {
        throw new Exception("enum does not have static method");
    }
}

你的枚举:

final class MyEnum extends Enum {
    static public function val1() {
        return new self("val1");
    }

    static public function val2() {
        return new self("val2");
    }

    static public function val3() {
        return new self("val3");
    }
}

测试:

$a = MyEnum::val1();
echo "1.the enum value is '$a'\n";

function consumeMyEnum(MyEnum $arg) {
    return "2.the return value is '$arg'\n";
}

echo consumeMyEnum($a);
$version = explode(".", PHP_VERSION);
if ($version[0] >= 7) {
    try {
        echo consumeMyEnum("val1");
    } catch (TypeError $e) {
        echo "3.passing argument error happens (PHP 7.0 and above)\n";
    }
}

echo ($a == MyEnum::val1()) ? "4.same\n" : "4.different\n";
echo ($a == MyEnum::val2()) ? "5.same\n" : "5.different\n";

$b = MyEnum::val1();
echo ($a == $b)  ? "6.same\n" : "6.different\n";
echo ($a === $b) ? "7.same\n" : "7.different\n";

$c = MyEnum::val2();
echo ($a == $c)  ? "8.same\n" : "8.different\n";
echo ($a === $c) ? "9.same\n" : "9.different\n";

switch ($c) {
    case MyEnum::val1(): echo "10.case of 1st\n"; break;
    case MyEnum::val2(): echo "11.case of 2nd\n"; break;
    case MyEnum::val3(): echo "12.case of 3rd\n"; break;
}

try {
    $a->prop = 10;
} catch (Exception $e) {
    echo "13.set property error happens\n";
}

try {
    echo $a->prop;
} catch (Exception $e) {
    echo "14.get property error happens\n";
}

try {
    echo $a->meth();
} catch (Exception $e) {
    echo "15.method call error happens\n";
}

try {
    echo MyEnum::meth();
} catch (Exception $e) {
    echo "16.static method call error happens\n";
}

class Ordinary {}
echo $a instanceof MyEnum   ? "17.MyEnum instance\n"   : "17.not MyEnum instance\n";
echo $a instanceof Enum     ? "18.Enum instance\n"     : "18.not Enum instance\n";
echo $a instanceof Ordinary ? "19.Ordinary instance\n" : "19.not Ordinary instance\n";

提出的解决方案效果很好。干净光滑。

然而，如果你想要强类型的枚举，你可以使用这个:

class TestEnum extends Enum
{
    public static $TEST1;
    public static $TEST2;
}
TestEnum::init(); // Automatically initializes enum values

枚举类如下所示:

class Enum
{
    public static function parse($enum)
    {
        $class = get_called_class();
        $vars = get_class_vars($class);
        if (array_key_exists($enum, $vars)) {
            return $vars[$enum];
        }
        return null;
    }

    public static function init()
    {
        $className = get_called_class();
        $consts = get_class_vars($className);
        foreach ($consts as $constant => $value) {
            if (is_null($className::$$constant)) {
                $constantValue = $constant;
                $constantValueName = $className . '::' . $constant . '_VALUE';
                if (defined($constantValueName)) {
                    $constantValue = constant($constantValueName);
                }
                $className::$$constant = new $className($constantValue);
            }
        }
    }

    public function __construct($value)
    {
        $this->value = $value;
    }
}

这样，枚举值是强类型的和

$TEST1 == TEST1::parse('TEST1') // true语句

abstract class Enumeration
{
    public static function enum() 
    {
        $reflect = new ReflectionClass( get_called_class() );
        return $reflect->getConstants();
    }
}


class Test extends Enumeration
{
    const A = 'a';
    const B = 'b';    
}


foreach (Test::enum() as $key => $value) {
    echo "$key -> $value<br>";
}
