I'm merging a couple of arrays like this in PHP
//all the other stuff
$array1 = (array) $new;
$array2 = (array) $info;
$ab = array('a' => $array1, 'b' => $array2);
print_r($ab);
print_r($ab)
gives me something like this:
Array
(
[a] => Array
(
[entries] => Array
(
[0] => stdClass Object
(
[title] => Serial - This American Life
[id] => Serial is a podcast from the creators of This American Life, hosted by Sarah Koenig.
)
[1] => stdClass Object
(
[title] => This American Life - This American Life
[id] => This American Life is a weekly public radio show, heard by 2.2 million people on more than 500 stations.
)
[2] => stdClass Object
(
[title] => Real Crime Profile - Real Crime Profile
[id] => Podcast talking about criminal cases and personality profiling.
)
)
)
[b] => Array
(
[entries] => Array
(
[0] => stdClass Object

)
)
This is close to what I'm looking for, but ideally, I'd like to simplify this even more so I don't have an a
and b
"tree" within this array.
This is what I'm trying to end up with:
Array
(
[a] => Array
(
[entries] => Array
(
[0] => stdClass Object
(
[title] => Serial - This American Life
[id] => Serial is a podcast from the creators of This American Life, hosted by Sarah Koenig.

)
[1] => stdClass Object

)
)
)
)
I've also tried array_merge_recursive($array1['entries'],$array2['entries']
, but this give me something like this (6 objects [2 from one array and 4 from the other] instead of 3):
Array

[0] => stdClass Object

Thoughts on how to merge these into 3 objects?
