Difference between two commands of fetching Shopping Cart Items in Magento
- by Knowledge Craving
In Magento, if you need to get / fetch the Shopping Cart's Item details, you can do it in any of the two possible ways, which will provide you with all the shopped Items in an array:-
$cartItems1 = $cart->getQuote()->getAllItems();
$cartItems2 = $cart->getItems()->getData();
But before using any one of the above two methods, you need to initialize the shopping cart object as:-
$cart = new Mage_Checkout_Model_Cart();
$cart->init();
Can anyone please describe in details as to what the two options provide & their differences between each other, along with their possible usage.
In any more such option is available in Magento, can anyone please highlight it?
