How to automatically get the value of the File property?

Question

1C-Bitrix

Is it possible in Bitrix to automatically process all the properties of an element, regardless of their type (we don’t even consider complex types, for example, lists)? Integers, strings and files.

$props = $item->getProperties();

foreach ($props as $key => $prop)
    $result[$key] = $prop['VALUE'];

That is, you need a one-dimensional array [Key => Value], but with this approach, properties of the "File" type store not the path to the file, but its ID.

Answer 1

You can automatically process properties depending on the type:

$props = $item->getProperties();

foreach ($props as $key => $prop) {
    if ($prop['PROPERTY_TYPE'] == 'F')
        $result[$key] = CFile::getPath($prop['VALUE']);

    else $result[$key] = $prop['VALUE'];
}
