I'm trying to remove an object from an array of objects by its' index. Here's what I've got so far, but i'm stumped.
$index = 2;
$objectarray = array(
0=>array('label'=>'foo', 'value'=>'n23'),
1=>array('label'=>'bar', 'value'=>'2n13'),
2=>array('label'=>'foobar', 'value'=>'n2314'),
3=>array('label'=>'barfoo', 'value'=>'03n23')
);
//I've tried the following but it removes the entire array.
foreach ($objectarray as $key => $object) {
if ($key == $index) {
array_splice($object, $key, 1);
//unset($object[$key]); also removes entire array.
}
}
Any help would be appreciated.
array_splice($objectarray, $index, 1); //array_splice accepts 3 parameters
//(array, start, length) removes the given array and then normalizes the index
//OR
unset($objectarray[$index]); //removes the array at given index
$reindex = array_values($objectarray); //normalize index
$objectarray = $reindex; //update variable
array_splice($objectarray, $index, 1);
//array_splice accepts 3 parameters (array, start, length) and removes the given
//array and then normalizes the index
//OR
unset($objectarray[$index]); //removes the array at given index
$reindex = array_values($objectarray); //normalize index
$objectarray = $reindex; //update variable
You have to use the function unset
on your array.
So its like that:
<?php
$index = 2;
$objectarray = array(
0 => array('label' => 'foo', 'value' => 'n23'),
1 => array('label' => 'bar', 'value' => '2n13'),
2 => array('label' => 'foobar', 'value' => 'n2314'),
3 => array('label' => 'barfoo', 'value' => '03n23')
);
var_dump($objectarray);
foreach ($objectarray as $key => $object) {
if ($key == $index) {
unset($objectarray[$index]);
}
}
var_dump($objectarray);
?>
Remember, your array will have odd indexes after that and you must (if you want) reindex it.
$foo2 = array_values($objectarray);
in that case you won't need that foreach just unset directly
unset($objectarray[$index]);
