you are in PHP, not in JavaScript.
In PHP arrays are like collections or hash tables.
if you strictly need object cause
$o->stuff
is better than
$o['stuff']
having exactly the same number of characters, you can create a function like
function o(array $a){
$o = new stdClass;
foreach($a as $key => $value)
$o->$key = $value;
return $o;
}
and the syntax will be
$o = o(array(
'a' => "b",
'c' => "d"
));
spot the difference from (object) array(whatever) ?
I do not ... and that's why json_encode resolves associative arrays rather than
list automatically but still, if you are in PHP, you should think about being
familiar with associative arrays, also because so far is the only class you
cannot create/extend.
class string {
// ok
}
class object {
// ok
}
class array {
// no way
}
