Question

I’m getting this error with my current PHP code:

Notice: TO id was not an integer: 1, 2. 1) APNS::queueMessage ->

How can I convert to an array of strings to an array of integers like in this other question: ID not integer… EasyAPNS ?

I’m basically trying to pass ids (from my database,) to newMessage() like this Apple example:

// SEND MESSAGE TO MORE THAN ONE USER
// $apns->newMessage(array(1,3,4,5,8,15,16)); 
// ($destination contain a string with the Ids like "1,2,3")

Here is my code below:

if (isset($destination))
{
    //$destination = 1,2,.. 
    $dest = explode(",", $destination);
    if (isset($time))
    {
        $apns->newMessage($dest, $time);
    }
    else
    {
        $apns->newMessage($dest);
    }

    $apns->addMessageAlert($message);
    $apns->addMessageBadge($badge);
    $apns->addMessageSound('bingbong.aiff');
    $apns->queueMessage();
    header("location:$url/index.php?success=1");
}

Answer 1

I would create a wrapper function that accepts an array, and then call it.

function newMessageArray($array) {
    foreach ($array as $element) {
        $apns->newMessage($element);
    }
}

This way, you can call newMessageArray() with an array of integers, such as array(1,2,3,4,5), and they will all be sent.

Also, you should change the variable names (from $array and $element) to something more meaningful. I don’t know what you’re trying to do, so I wasn’t sure what names to use.
