Sort the entries with a user-defined comparison function and maintain key association
public void ArrayObject::uasort ( callable $cmp_function )
This function sorts the entries such that keys maintain their correlation with the entry that they are associated with, using a user-defined comparison function.
This is used mainly when sorting associative arrays where the actual element order is significant.
Parameters:
cmp_function
Function cmp_function
should accept two parameters which will be filled by pairs of entries. The comparison function must return an integer less than, equal to, or greater than zero if the first argument is considered to be respectively less than, equal to, or greater than the second.
Returns:
No value is returned.
Examples:
ArrayObject::uasort() example
<?php // Comparison function function cmp($a, $b) { if ($a == $b) { return 0; } return ($a < $b) ? -1 : 1; } // Array to be sorted $array = array('a' => 4, 'b' => 8, 'c' => -1, 'd' => -9, 'e' => 2, 'f' => 5, 'g' => 3, 'h' => -4); $arrayObject = new ArrayObject($array); print_r($arrayObject); // Sort and print the resulting array $arrayObject->uasort('cmp'); print_r($arrayObject); ?>
The above example will output:
Array ( [a] => 4 [b] => 8 [c] => -1 [d] => -9 [e] => 2 [f] => 5 [g] => 3 [h] => -4 ) Array ( [d] => -9 [h] => -4 [c] => -1 [e] => 2 [g] => 3 [a] => 4 [f] => 5 [b] => 8 )
