如果你想要类型安全和一堆与该类型匹配的常量，一种方法是为你的枚举创建一个抽象类，然后用一个锁定的构造函数扩展这个类，如下所示:

abstract class DaysOfWeekEnum{
    public function __construct(string $value){
        $this->value = $value; 
    }
    public function __toString(){
        return $this->value;
    }

}
class Monday extends DaysOfWeekEnum{
    public function __construct(){
        parent::__construct("Monday");
    }
}

class Tuesday extends DaysOfWeekEnum{
    public function __construct(){
        parent::__construct("Tuesday");
    }
}

然后你可以让你的方法获取DaysOfWeek的一个实例，并传递给它一个Monday、Tuesday等实例……唯一的缺点是每次你想使用你的枚举时都必须“更新”一个实例，但我发现这是值得的。

function printWeekDay(DaysOfWeek $day){
    echo "Today is $day.";
}

printWeekDay(new Monday());

编辑:从PHP 8.1开始，支持枚举:https://www.php.net/manual/en/language.types.enumerations.php

根据用例，我通常会使用如下简单的代码:

abstract class DaysOfWeek
{
    const Sunday = 0;
    const Monday = 1;
    // etc.
}

$today = DaysOfWeek::Sunday;

然而，其他用例可能需要对常量和值进行更多的验证。根据下面关于反射的评论和其他一些注意事项，下面是一个扩展的示例，它可能更好地适用于更广泛的情况:

abstract class BasicEnum {
    private static $constCacheArray = NULL;

    private static function getConstants() {
        if (self::$constCacheArray == NULL) {
            self::$constCacheArray = [];
        }
        $calledClass = get_called_class();
        if (!array_key_exists($calledClass, self::$constCacheArray)) {
            $reflect = new ReflectionClass($calledClass);
            self::$constCacheArray[$calledClass] = $reflect->getConstants();
        }
        return self::$constCacheArray[$calledClass];
    }

    public static function isValidName($name, $strict = false) {
        $constants = self::getConstants();

        if ($strict) {
            return array_key_exists($name, $constants);
        }

        $keys = array_map('strtolower', array_keys($constants));
        return in_array(strtolower($name), $keys);
    }

    public static function isValidValue($value, $strict = true) {
        $values = array_values(self::getConstants());
        return in_array($value, $values, $strict);
    }
}

通过创建一个扩展BasicEnum的简单枚举类，你现在可以使用方法进行简单的输入验证:

abstract class DaysOfWeek extends BasicEnum {
    const Sunday = 0;
    const Monday = 1;
    const Tuesday = 2;
    const Wednesday = 3;
    const Thursday = 4;
    const Friday = 5;
    const Saturday = 6;
}

DaysOfWeek::isValidName('Humpday');                  // false
DaysOfWeek::isValidName('Monday');                   // true
DaysOfWeek::isValidName('monday');                   // true
DaysOfWeek::isValidName('monday', $strict = true);   // false
DaysOfWeek::isValidName(0);                          // false

DaysOfWeek::isValidValue(0);                         // true
DaysOfWeek::isValidValue(5);                         // true
DaysOfWeek::isValidValue(7);                         // false
DaysOfWeek::isValidValue('Friday');                  // false

作为旁注，任何时候我在一个静态/const类上至少使用一次反射，其中数据不会改变(例如在enum中)，我都会缓存那些反射调用的结果，因为每次使用新的反射对象最终都会有明显的性能影响(存储在多个enum的关联数组中)。

现在大多数人已经升级到至少5.3版本，而且也有了脾脏，这当然也是一个可行的选择——只要你不介意在你的代码库中使用实际枚举实例化这种传统的不直观的概念。在上面的例子中，BasicEnum和DaysOfWeek根本不能被实例化，也不应该被实例化。

下面是一个github库，用于在php中处理类型安全的枚举:

这个库处理类生成、类缓存，并实现了Type Safe Enumeration设计模式，使用几个辅助方法来处理枚举，比如为枚举排序检索序号，或为枚举组合检索二进制值。

生成的代码使用一个普通的旧php模板文件，该文件也是可配置的，因此您可以提供自己的模板。

它是由phpunit覆盖的完整测试。

用法:(@参见Usage .php或单元测试了解更多细节)

<?php
//require the library
require_once __DIR__ . '/src/Enum.func.php';

//if you don't have a cache directory, create one
@mkdir(__DIR__ . '/cache');
EnumGenerator::setDefaultCachedClassesDir(__DIR__ . '/cache');

//Class definition is evaluated on the fly:
Enum('FruitsEnum', array('apple' , 'orange' , 'rasberry' , 'bannana'));

//Class definition is cached in the cache directory for later usage:
Enum('CachedFruitsEnum', array('apple' , 'orange' , 'rasberry' , 'bannana'), '\my\company\name\space', true);

echo 'FruitsEnum::APPLE() == FruitsEnum::APPLE(): ';
var_dump(FruitsEnum::APPLE() == FruitsEnum::APPLE()) . "\n";

echo 'FruitsEnum::APPLE() == FruitsEnum::ORANGE(): ';
var_dump(FruitsEnum::APPLE() == FruitsEnum::ORANGE()) . "\n";

echo 'FruitsEnum::APPLE() instanceof Enum: ';
var_dump(FruitsEnum::APPLE() instanceof Enum) . "\n";

echo 'FruitsEnum::APPLE() instanceof FruitsEnum: ';
var_dump(FruitsEnum::APPLE() instanceof FruitsEnum) . "\n";

echo "->getName()\n";
foreach (FruitsEnum::iterator() as $enum)
{
  echo "  " . $enum->getName() . "\n";
}

echo "->getValue()\n";
foreach (FruitsEnum::iterator() as $enum)
{
  echo "  " . $enum->getValue() . "\n";
}

echo "->getOrdinal()\n";
foreach (CachedFruitsEnum::iterator() as $enum)
{
  echo "  " . $enum->getOrdinal() . "\n";
}

echo "->getBinary()\n";
foreach (CachedFruitsEnum::iterator() as $enum)
{
  echo "  " . $enum->getBinary() . "\n";
}

输出:

FruitsEnum::APPLE() == FruitsEnum::APPLE(): bool(true)
FruitsEnum::APPLE() == FruitsEnum::ORANGE(): bool(false)
FruitsEnum::APPLE() instanceof Enum: bool(true)
FruitsEnum::APPLE() instanceof FruitsEnum: bool(true)
->getName()

  RASBERRY
  BANNANA
->getValue()

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>";
}

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";

类常量呢?

<?php

class YourClass
{
    const SOME_CONSTANT = 1;

    public function echoConstant()
    {
        echo self::SOME_CONSTANT;
    }
}

echo YourClass::SOME_CONSTANT;

$c = new YourClass;
$c->echoConstant();
