Java - toString() <-> php - ?

[Adi Zebic <adi@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

To print "state" of object in Java I can define toString() function and 
then I can do something like this:

Java exemple:
*************************************
import java.io.*;
import java.util.*;

public class ReadTextFromFile
{
	private static String line;
	private static String Fable = new String ("");
	private static String NomFable;
	private static int cptLine = 0;
	private static int nbrPersonnes = 0;
	private static String nomPersonnes = new String ("");
	private static ArrayList AListe = new ArrayList(nbrPersonnes);

//**********************************************************************************
public String toString()
{
	return getClass().getName()
	+ " [ Nom de la fable: "+  NomFable
	+ "  <==>  Nombre de personnes dans dialogue: " + nbrPersonnes
	+ " ] "
	;
}
***********************************************************************************

Is there similar kind of function in php that help us to print the state 
of object in his "life evolution"?

Thanks


ADI
