(PHP 5 >= 5.1.0, PHP 7)
array_diff_ukey — Computes the difference of arrays using a callback function on the keys for comparison
Compares the keys from array1 against the keys
from array2 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.
array1The array to compare from
array2An array to compare against
...More arrays to compare against
key_compare_funcThe 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
array1 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');.
