note 110847 added to function.array-merge

@izhar_aazmi at gmail dot com @ventzy dot public at gmail dot com ... and for every other. If array_merge() isn't the resolution for your problem, please take a look the array operator + (UNION): <?php $a = ['test'=>1, (object)['name'=>'object 1 at index 0'], 'foo stays at index 1']; $b = [(object)['name'=>'object 2 at index 0'], 'test'=>2]; var_dump($b + $a); // Same results as the foreach() example // array(3) { // [0]=> object(stdClass)#1 (1) { // ["name"]=> string(19) "object 2 at index 0" // } // ["test"]=> int(2) // [1]=> string(20) "foo stays at index 1" // } ?> The key here is to use $b + $a, not $a + $b, since the keys of the first array are locked for overwriting, or in other words: $first + $second means copying any new keys (not value) in $second to $first. This relates to any keytype, doesn't have any limitations to the type of value and no value gets an different index!!! PS: On older PHP-Version use array() instead of [] in my example :) ---- Server IP: 213.172.110.14 Probable Submitter: 217.91.162.102 ---- Manual Page -- http://php.net/manual/en/function.array-merge.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/110847 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/110847/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/110847/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/110847/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/110847/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/110847/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/110847/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/110847 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/110847 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
