I was just wondering if it was possible to update the value of a key in the Mage::registry without unsetting and resetting the item in the registry.

e.g.

$ids = array('1', '2', '3');
Mage::register('testing-key', $ids);

$re_ids = Mage::registry('testing-key');
$re_ids[] = '4';

Mage::registry('testing-key') = $re_ids;

No, unfortunately, the Mage class only provides three different methods to deal with the registry:

  • register
  • unregister
  • registry

Thus, you will have to call unregister then register again if you want to update an entry in the registry.

  • Is there a way to lock a registry item? What I mean is that say there's a process that multiple users can go through at the same time, but it uses the same registry item. I want only 1 users to be able to read, unregister and re-register an item at a time. Sorry if these questions seem dumb, I'm trying to find the best solution to a problem, and trying as many different solutions as I can to find the best one :)
