note 95258 added to function.array-multisort

Update to array_msort()--in PHP 5.3 it won't work. The solution is to replace the array_merge($params, $order) with the following code snippet: <?php $order=(array)$order; foreach($order as $order_element) { $params[]=&$order_element; } ?> Full code to array_msort(): <?php function array_msort($array, $cols) { $colarr = array(); foreach ($cols as $col => $order) { $colarr[$col] = array(); foreach ($array as $k => $row) { $colarr[$col]['_'.$k] = strtolower($row[$col]); } } $params = array(); foreach ($cols as $col => $order) { $params[] =&$colarr[$col]; $order=(array)$order; foreach($order as $order_element) { //pass by reference, as required by php 5.3 $params[]=&$order_element; } } call_user_func_array('array_multisort', $params); $ret = array(); $keys = array(); $first = true; foreach ($colarr as $col => $arr) { foreach ($arr as $k => $v) { if ($first) { $keys[$k] = substr($k,1); } $k = $keys[$k]; if (!isset($ret[$k])) { $ret[$k] = $array[$k]; } $ret[$k][$col] = $array[$k][$col]; } $first = false; } return $ret; } ?> For further reference, see these bug reports: http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=49069 http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=49241 ---- Server IP: 69.147.83.197 Probable Submitter: 128.223.201.168 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.array-multisort.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/95258 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/95258/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/95258/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/95258/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/95258/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/95258/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/95258/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/95258 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/95258 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
