Hi,
I have designed an array with occasional arrays as values, to mimic the structure of
a html select element with optgroup entries.
Now I need some functions like counting all selectable elements, and searching a key.
I thought array_walk_recursive() was appropriate for this task. But now I have a
problem getting values out of my callback. I could use globals here, but nicer seemed
to be: an extra function parameter "by reference".
Now I keep getting PHP Deprecated: Call-time pass-by-reference has been deprecated
in ...
I know I can suppress these messages, but is there an "official" way to pass
variables by reference with a callback?
I tested all possible combinations, test script attached.
/Str.
<?php
/**
* Testen von array_walk
* result: define by ref does not matter, call by ref is needed
*/
error_reporting(-1);
$sub1 = array('I'=>'Igor', 'J'=>'Jan', 'K'=>'Karl', 'L'=>'Liugi', 'M'=>'Michael');
$sub2 = array('A'=>'Alexa', 'B'=>'Brunhilda','C'=>'Carla','D'=>'Dina','E'=>'Elsa');
$a['F'] = 'Frantzi';
$a['G'] = 'Gustavo';
$a['Gentlemen'] = $sub1;
$a['H'] = 'Hillbilly';
$a['Ladies'] = $sub2;
function findindex($v,$k,$var) {
if ($k=='K') $var = $v;
}
function findindex1($v,$k, &$var) {
if ($k=='K') $var = $v;
}
echo '------------------------------', PHP_EOL;
echo "\tStart run\n";
echo '------------------------------', PHP_EOL;
#
# test call by ref
#
$var = 'something';
echo "var before array_walk: ($var)\n";
# this does work, var will be defined: unset($var);
$rc = array_walk_recursive($a, 'findindex', &$var);
echo "rc = $rc, var after array_walk with call by ref: ($var)\n";
echo '------------------------------', PHP_EOL;
#
# test define by ref
#
$var = 'something';
echo "var before array_walk: ($var)\n";
$rc = array_walk_recursive($a, 'findindex1', $var);
echo "rc = $rc, var after array_walk with define by ref, call by val: ($var)\n";
echo '------------------------------', PHP_EOL;
#
# test define by ref, call by ref
#
$var = 'something';
echo "var before array_walk: ($var)\n";
$rc = array_walk_recursive($a, 'findindex1', &$var);
echo "rc = $rc, var after array_walk with define by ref + call by ref: ($var)\n";
echo '------------------------------', PHP_EOL;
