Thank you all. This is completly new to me (didn't thougt that it is
possible to use [ ] on objects). So just for clarification:If I write a
custom class (not an child of ObjectArray) and implement that array
interface then I can use $customClass[$key] = $value and changing the
functionality as I like to, for example create a nice usability?
Or with an other point of view: Can I use those braces normally on every
object? Or is this functionality introduced with implementing the array
interface?
