Filters are provided by Amfphp to allow your contexts to 'filter into' the rest of Amfphp, i.e.

to call functions in your context at specific times
Call addFilter to register a filter, with a default priority of 10, and call callFilter to actually execute the filter

The data structure is as follows: all registered filters : associative array ( filter name => name filters) name filters : associative array containing filters for one filter name (priority => priority filters) priority filters: numbered array containing filters for one filter name and one priority [callback1, callback2, etc.]

So for example if you were to call: addFilter("FILTER_1", $obj, "method1"); addFilter("FILTER_1", $obj, "method2"); addFilter("FILTER_1", $obj, "method3", 15); addFilter("FILTER_2", $obj, "method4");

the structure would be "FILTER_1" => array( 10 => [callback for method1, callback for method2] 15 => [callback for method3] "FILTER_2" => array( 10 => [callback for method4]

This is a singleton, so use getInstance
