My reply is a bit pointless as I'd never do/rely on this. But
nonetheless it was an interesting test.
function testObj() {
$arr = array();
$arr['key1'] = array(1, 2, 3);
$arr['key3'] = array('a','b','c');
return (object)$arr;
}
echo '<pre>';
echo "Key1: \n";
print_r(testObj()->key1);
echo "Key3: \n";
print_r(testObj()->key3);
--- output ----
Key1:
Array
(
[0] => 1
[1] => 2
[2] => 3
)
Key3:
Array
(
[0] => a
[1] => b
[2] => c
)
