array_diff_ukey — Computes the difference of arrays using a callback function on the keys for comparison
Compares the keys from array
against the keys
from arrays
and returns the difference.
This function is like array_diff() except the
comparison is done on the keys instead of the values.
Unlike array_diff_key() a user supplied callback function is used for the indices comparison, not internal function.
array
The array to compare from
arrays
Arrays to compare against
key_compare_func
The comparison function 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.
Returns an array containing all the entries from
array
that are not present in any of the other arrays.
Example #1 array_diff_ukey() example
<?php
function key_compare_func($key1, $key2)
{
if ($key1 == $key2)
return 0;
else if ($key1 > $key2)
return 1;
else
return -1;
}
$array1 = array('blue' => 1, 'red' => 2, 'green' => 3, 'purple' => 4);
$array2 = array('green' => 5, 'blue' => 6, 'yellow' => 7, 'cyan' => 8);
var_dump(array_diff_ukey($array1, $array2, 'key_compare_func'));
?>
The above example will output:
array(2) { ["red"]=> int(2) ["purple"]=> int(4) }
Note:
This function only checks one dimension of a n-dimensional array. Of course you can check deeper dimensions by using
array_diff_ukey($array1[0], $array2[0], 'callback_func');
