foreach - Remove element from Iterator in PHP -

i'm dealing class implements arrayaccess and iterator (let's $a) and, while looping through foreach, remove/unset elements (based on if conditions).

foreach($a $item) { if(mustberemoved()) { $a->remove($item); } }

now, problem in implementation provoke unexpected behaviour in foreach loop, cause not aware of changes , maintain going , stopping prematurely regardless element removed (or added).

is there good/elegant way solve issue?

just straigt forwards approach:

$tmp = array(); foreach($a $item) { if(!mustberemoved()) { $tmp[] = $item; } } $a = tmp;

collect items shouldn't removed , create new array. in end assign temporary array old one.
