The RecursiveFilterIterator class

The RecursiveFilterIterator class

Introduction

(PHP 5 >= 5.1.0, PHP 7, PHP 8)

This abstract iterator filters out unwanted values for a RecursiveIterator. This class should be extended to implement custom filters. The RecursiveFilterIterator::accept() must be implemented in the subclass.
