Decode string into an array

I am getting below output from a string, that I want to decode into a simple array so that I could use those value to process. web-service used below function to return response

echo(var_export($response));

Response

stdClass::__set_state(array(
   'criteriaKeyResultsMap' => 
  stdClass::__set_state(array(
     '477270310' => true,
     '528726710' => false,
     '517907210' => true,
     '497709910' => true,
     '253529610' => false,
     '529845410' => true,
     '519674810' => false,
     '517587110' => false,
     '477270610' => true,
     '260901310' => false,
     '260901610' => false,
     '529845110' => true,
  )),
))

I am trying with json_decode() but it gives same result.

Try this one 

json_decode($your_data,true);

It will produce output .

The best fix will be to update your API (if you have control of the source) to use json_encode instead of var_export before it does an echo.

Parsing the output of var_export is possible, but a lot more complex, resource intensive and prone to breakage in the future.
