If you did something like this to make your constructor multidimensional capable you will have some trouble using getArrayCopy to get a plain array straight out of the method:
<?php
public function __construct( $array = array(), $flags = 2 )
{
$class = get_class($this);
foreach($array as $offset => $value)
$this->offsetSet($offset, is_array($value) ? new $class($value) : $value);
$this->setFlags($flags);
}
?>
That’s the way I solved it:
<?php
public function getArray($recursion = false)
{
if ( $this === true)
return $this->getArrayCopy();
return array_map( function($item){
return is_object($item) ? $item->getArray(true) : $item;
}, $this->getArrayCopy() );
}
?>
Hope this was useful!
