Re: [PATCH] array_get()

I had forgotten that attachments aren't allowed. Here are links to the patch and test suite. This ought to work.

Here's a patch against HEAD that implements the array_get function previously suggested on this list. I also attached a test suite, which should go in ext/standard/tests/array/array_get.phpt. Feedback is welcome. Independently, someone else had posted the same idea as a feature request for PHP 5, and if there's interest I can backport it.

40792 Open       Wish: Function array_get(&$mixed, $key, $defaultvalue)

/* Prototype: * mixed array_get ( array $search, mixed $key, mixed $default ); * Description: * Returns the value corresponding to the given key if the key exists * in the array. $key can be any value possible for an array index. * If the key does not exist, the function returns $default, or FALSE * if $default is not specified. Also works on objects. * Similar semantics to array_key_exists. */ Here is the original proposal:
