Json encocde Mix of array with objects converted all in array only
My php function returns an array that I converted into json using
$req = json_encode($questionData);
then passed this to other function and decoded
$res = json_decode($req);
It return me an array including all indexes in array format. Even in request array $questionData has object on some index, those should be in object after jason encode and decode execution.
I want to get same array which has mix of data of arrya and object.
Below is request array

so after i realised what you realy want to do i just uses serialize and unserialize as alternatives to the JSON-functions like the following working example:
class testobj {
public function __get($name) {
if(isset($this->{$name}))
return $this->{$name};
return false;
}
public function __set($name,$val) {
$this->{$name} = $val;
}
}
$test = new testobj();
$test->testvar = "testval";
echo print_r($test,true);
/* Output:
testobj Object
(
[testvar] => testval
)
*/
$test = serialize($test);
echo $test;
/* Output:
O:7:"testobj":1:{s:7:"testvar";s:7:"testval";}testobj Object
*/
$test = unserialize($test);
echo print_r($test,true);
/* Output:
testobj Object
(
[testvar] => testval
)
*/
echo $test->testvar; // outputs "testval"
i think serialize() and and unserialize() are not that fast as JSON de-/encoding (i've never tested/benchmarked this) but it stores object names in itself. I dont know if it works for classes/objects with methods to, but for your data above it will work. Also with the multidimensional structure, too.
