添加元素对象属性匹配的数组元素

Question

I have two arrays, First array:

array (size=3)
  0 => 
    object(stdClass)[31]
      public 'PkID' => string '489' (length=3)
      public 'HouseFk' => string '22' (length=2)
      public 'ConstructionTypeFk' => string '1' (length=1)
      public 'Price' => string '666' (length=3)
      public 'discount_id' => string '1' (length=1)

Second array:

array (size=2)
  0 => 
    object(stdClass)[28]
      public 'PkID' => string '22' (length=2)
      public 'ArchitectFk' => string '13' (length=2)
      public 'ShortVersion' => string '169' (length=3)
      public 'Subtitle' => string '' (length=0)
      public 'Size' => string '170.29' (length=6)
      public 'ConstructionTypeFk' => string '1'

Both arrays are much longer than above. Now I want to run through the Second array and create NEW property public 'discounts' inside this property will be the array with all the first array elements that match.

In another words for every element of the second array I want to check where the HouseFk in first array is the same as the PkID of the current element and where the ConstructionTypeFk is the same as the current element and add those matches inside current element.

Something in the lines of:

foreach ($second_array as $value)
{
    $value->discounts[] = first array element where HouseFk is equal to $value->PkID and ConstructionTypeFk is equal to $value->ConstructionTypeFk;
}

I can build pseudo code and know what to do, I just don't know what to use. I tried reading about array_filter but I don't think I can use it to search for two object properties....

Assuming your first array is $array1 and your second array is $array2:

$discounts = array();
foreach( $array1 as $row )
{
    $discounts[$row->HouseFk][$row->ConstructionTypeFk][] = $row;
}

foreach( $array2 as $row )
{
    if( isset($discounts[$row->PkID][$row->ConstructionTypeFk]) )
    {
        $row->discounts = $discounts[$row->PkID][$row->ConstructionTypeFk];
    }
}

First we iterate children array, creating a new array ($discounts) with keys as [HouseFk][ConstructionTypeFk], then it's easy, iterating main array, to add the appropriate ->discounts property: if in $discounts array there is an element with [PkID][ConstructionTypeFk] key, we can add it.
