Note that the keys are used in the comparison unlike <function>array_diff</function> and <function>array_udiff</function>. The comparison of arrays' data is performed by using an user-supplied callback. In this aspect the behaviour is opposite to the behaviour of <function>array_diff_assoc</function> which uses internal function for comparison. </para> <para> <example> <title><function>array_udiff_assoc</function> example</title> <programlisting role="php"> <![CDATA[ <?php class cr { private $priv_member; function cr($val) { $this->priv_member = $val; } function comp_func_cr($a, $b) { if ($a->priv_member === $b->priv_member) return 0; return ($a->priv_member > $b->priv_member)? 1:-1; } } $a = array("0.1" => new cr(9), "0.5" => new cr(12), 0 => new cr(23), 1=> new cr(4), 2 => new cr(-15),); $b = array("0.2" => new cr(9), "0.5" => new cr(22), 0 => new cr(3), 1=> new cr(4), 2 => new cr(-15),); $result = array_udiff_assoc($a, $b, array("cr", "comp_func_cr")); print_r($result); ?> ]]> </programlisting> <para> The result is: </para> <screen> <![CDATA[ Array ( [0.1] => cr Object ( [priv_member:private] => 9 ) [0.5] => cr Object ( [priv_member:private] => 12 ) [0] => cr Object ( [priv_member:private] => 23 ) ) ]]> </screen> </example> </para> <simpara> In our example above you see the <literal>"1" => new cr(4)</literal> pair is present in both arrays and thus it is not in the ouput from the function. </simpara> <simpara> For comparison is used the user supplied callback function. It 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. </simpara> <note> <simpara> Please note that this function only checks one dimension of a n-dimensional array. Of course you can check deeper dimensions by using, for example, <literal>array_udiff_assoc($array1[0], $array2[0], "some_comparison_func");</literal>. </simpara> </note> <para> See also <function>array_diff</function>, <function>array_diff_assoc</function>, <function>array_diff_uassoc</function>, <function>array_udiff</function>, <function>array_udiff_uassoc</function>, <function>array_intersect</function>, <function>array_intersect_assoc</function>, <function>array_uintersect</function>, <function>array_uintersect_assoc</function> and <function>array_uintersect_uassoc</function>. </para> </refsect1> </refentry> <!-- Keep this comment at the end of the file Local variables: mode: sgml sgml-omittag:t sgml-shorttag:t sgml-minimize-attributes:nil sgml-always-quote-attributes:t sgml-indent-step:1 sgml-indent-data:t indent-tabs-mode:nil sgml-parent-document:nil sgml-default-dtd-file:"../../../../manual.ced" sgml-exposed-tags:nil sgml-local-catalogs:nil sgml-local-ecat-files:nil End: vim600: syn=xml fen fdm=syntax fdl=2 si vim: et tw=78 syn=sgml vi: ts=1 sw=1 -->
