I have a problem to convert an object stdClass to array. I have tried in this way:
return (array) $booking;
or
return (array) json_decode($booking,true);
or
return (array) json_decode($booking);
The array before the cast is full with one record, after my try to cast it is empty. How to cast / convert it without delete its rows?
array before cast:
array(1) { [0]=> object(stdClass)#23 (36) { ["id"]=> string(1) "2" ["name"]=> string(0) "" ["code"]=> string(5) "56/13" } }
after cast is empty NULL if I try to make a var_dump($booking);
I have also tried this function but always empty:
public function objectToArray($d) {
if (is_object($d)) {
// Gets the properties of the given object
// with get_object_vars function
$d = get_object_vars($d);
}
if (is_array($d)) {
/*
* Return array converted to object
* Using __FUNCTION__ (Magic constant)
* for recursive call
*/
return array_map(__FUNCTION__, $d);
}
else {
// Return array
return $d;
}
}
Since it's an array before you cast it, casting it makes no sense.
You may want a recursive cast, which would look something like this:
function arrayCastRecursive($array)
{
if (is_array($array)) {
foreach ($array as $key => $value) {
if (is_array($value)) {
$array[$key] = arrayCastRecursive($value);
}
if ($value instanceof stdClass) {
$array[$key] = arrayCastRecursive((array)$value);
}
}
}
if ($array instanceof stdClass) {
return arrayCastRecursive((array)$array);
}
return $array;
}
Usage:
$obj = new stdClass;
$obj->aaa = 'asdf';
$obj->bbb = 'adsf43';
$arr = array('asdf', array($obj, 3));
var_dump($arr);
$arr = arrayCastRecursive($arr);
var_dump($arr);
Result before:
array
0 => string 'asdf' (length = 4)
1 =>
array
0 =>
object(stdClass)[1]
public 'aaa' => string 'asdf' (length = 4)
public 'bbb' => string 'adsf43' (length = 6)
1 => int 3
Result after:
array
0 => string 'asdf' (length = 4)
1 =>
array
0 =>
array
'aaa' => string 'asdf' (length = 4)
'bbb' => string 'adsf43' (length = 6)
1 => int 3
Note:
Tested and working with complex arrays where a stdClass object can contain other stdClass objects.
Use the built in type cast functionality, simply type
$realArray = (array)$stdClass;
This function worked for me:
function cvf_convert_object_to_array($data) {
if (is_object($data)) {
$data = get_object_vars($data);
}
if (is_array($data)) {
return array_map(__FUNCTION__, $data);
}
else {
return $data;
}
}

Just googled it, and found here a handy function that is useful for converting stdClass object to array recursively.
<?php
function object_to_array($object) {
if (is_object($object)) {
return array_map(__FUNCTION__, get_object_vars($object));
} else if (is_array($object)) {
return array_map(__FUNCTION__, $object);
} else {
return $object;
}
}
?>
EDIT: I updated this answer with content from linked source (which is also changed now), thanks to mason81 for suggesting me.
The following code will read all emails & print the Subject, Body & Date.
<?php
$imap=imap_open("Mailbox","Email Address","Password");
if($imap){$fixMessages=1+imap_num_msg($imap); //Check no.of.msgs
/*
By adding 1 to "imap_num_msg($imap)" & starting at $count=1
the "Start" & "End" non-messages are ignored
*/
for ($count=1; $count<$fixMessages; $count++){
$objectOverview=imap_fetch_overview($imap,$count,0);
print '<br>$objectOverview: '; print_r($objectOverview);
print '<br>objectSubject ='.($objectOverview[0]->subject));
print '<br>objectDate ='.($objectOverview[0]->date);
$bodyMessage=imap_fetchbody($imap,$count,1);
print '<br>bodyMessage ='.$bodyMessage.'<br><br>';
} //for ($count=1; $count<$fixMessages; $count++)
} //if($imap)
imap_close($imap);
?>
This outputs the following:
$objectOverview: Array ( [0] => stdClass Object ( [subject] => Hello
[from] => Email Address [to] => Email Address [date] => Sun, 16 Jul 2017 20:23:18 +0100
[message_id] => [size] => 741 [uid] => 2 [msgno] => 2 [recent] => 0 [flagged] => 0
[answered] => 0 [deleted] => 0 [seen] => 1 [draft] => 0 [udate] => 1500232998 ) )
objectSubject =Hello
objectDate =Sun, 16 Jul 2017 20:23:18 +0100
bodyMessage =Test
Having struggled with various suggestions I have used trial & error to come up with this solution. Hope it helps.
Here is a version of Carlo's answer that can be used in a class:
class Formatter
{
public function objectToArray($data)
{
if (is_object($data)) {
$data = get_object_vars($data);
}
if (is_array($data)) {
return array_map(array($this, 'objectToArray'), $data);
}
return $data;
}
}
Here is the best Object to Array function I have - works recursively:
function object_to_array($obj, &$arr){
if(!is_object($obj) && !is_array($obj)){
$arr = $obj;
return $arr;
}
foreach ($obj as $key => $value)
{
if (!empty($value))
{
$arr[$key] = array();
object_to_array_v2($value, $arr[$key]);
}
else
{
$arr[$key] = $value;
}
}
return $arr;
}
$clean_array = object_to_array($object_data_here);
use this function to get a standard array back of the type you are after...
return get_object_vars($booking);
Please use following php function to convert php stdClass to array
get_object_vars($data)
