array_replace_recursive
Yep, thinking about it replacing from back to front, this works a trick!
here's a quick repalcement for PHP <=5.3
<?php
if (!function_exists('array_replace')){ function array_replace(){
$array=array();
$n=func_num_args();
while ($n-- >0) {
$array+=func_get_arg($n);
}
return $array;
}}
?>
array_replace
(PHP 5 >= 5.3.0)
array_replace — Remplace les éléments d'un tableau par ceux d'autres tableaux
Description
array array_replace
( array &$array
, array &$array1
[, array &$...
] )
array_replace() remplace les valeurs du premier array avec les valeurs des mêmes clés issues des tableaux suivants. Si une clé du premier tableau existe dans un des tableaux suivants, sa valeur sera remplacée. Si la clé n'existe pas dans le premier tableau, elle sera créée. Si la clé n'existe que dans le premier tableau, elle sera laissée intacte. Si plusieurs tableaux sont passés comme arguments de remplacement, ils seront traités dans l'ordre.
array_replace() n'est pas récursif : il remplace les valeurs du premier tableau par la valeur des tableaux suivants, quel que soit leur type.
Liste de paramètres
- array
-
Le tableau dans lequel les éléments sont remplacés.
- array1
-
Les tableaux dont les valeurs finiront dans le premier tableau.
- ...
-
Plus de tableaux depuis lesquels les éléments peuvent être extraits. Les valeurs des futurs tableaux écraseront les valeurs précédentes.
Valeurs de retour
Retourne un tableau ou NULL si une erreur survient.
Exemples
Exemple #1 Exemple avec array_replace()
<?php
$base = array("orange", "banana", "apple", "raspberry");
$replacements = array(0 => "pineapple", 4 => "cherry");
$replacements2 = array(0 => "grape");
$basket = array_replace($base, $replacements, $replacements2);
print_r($basket);
?>
L'exemple ci-dessus va afficher :
Array
(
[0] => grape
[1] => banana
[2] => apple
[3] => raspberry
[4] => cherry
)

Instead of calling this function, it's often faster and simpler to do this instead:
<?php
$array_replaced = $array2 + $array1;
?>
If you need references to stay intact:
<?php
$array2 += $array1;
?>

I got hit with a noob mistake. :)
When the function was called more than once, it threw a function redeclare error of course. The enviroment I was coding in never called it more than once but I caught it in testing and here is the fully working revision. A simple logical step was all that was needed.
With PHP 5.3 still unstable for Debian Lenny at this time and not knowing if array_replace would work with multi-dimensional arrays, I wrote my own. Since this site has helped me so much, I felt the need to return the favor. :)
<?php
// Polecat's Multi-dimensional array_replace function
// Will take all data in second array and apply to first array leaving any non-corresponding values untouched and intact
function polecat_array_replace( array &$array1, array &$array2 ) {
// This sub function is the iterator that will loop back on itself ad infinitum till it runs out of array dimensions
if(!function_exists('tier_parse')){
function tier_parse(array &$t_array1, array&$t_array2) {
foreach ($t_array2 as $k2 => $v2) {
if (is_array($t_array2[$k2])) {
tier_parse($t_array1[$k2], $t_array2[$k2]);
} else {
$t_array1[$k2] = $t_array2[$k2];
}
}
return $t_array1;
}
}
foreach ($array2 as $key => $val) {
if (is_array($array2[$key])) {
tier_parse($array1[$key], $array2[$key]);
} else {
$array1[$key] = $array2[$key];
}
}
return $array1;
}
?>
[I would also like to note] that if you want to add a single dimensional array to a multi, all you must do is pass the matching internal array key from the multi as the initial argument as such:
<?php
$array1 = array( "berries" => array( "strawberry" => array( "color" => "red", "food" => "desserts"), "dewberry" = array( "color" => "dark violet", "food" => "pies"), );
$array2 = array( "food" => "wine");
$array1["berries"]["dewberry"] = polecat_array_replace($array1["berries"]["dewberry"], $array2);
?>
This is will replace the value for "food" for "dewberry" with "wine".
The function will also do the reverse and add a multi to a single dimensional array or even a 2 tier array to a 5 tier as long as the heirarchy tree is identical.
I hope this helps atleast one person for all that I've gained from this site.

I would like to add to my previous note about my polecat_array_replace function that if you want to add a single dimensional array to a multi, all you must do is pass the matching internal array key from the multi as the initial argument as such:
$array1 = array( "berries" => array( "strawberry" => array( "color" => "red", "food" => "desserts"), "dewberry" = array( "color" => "dark violet", "food" => "pies"), );
$array2 = array( "food" => "wine");
$array1["berries"]["dewberry"] = polecat_array_replace($array1["berries"]["dewberry"], $array2);
This is will replace the value for "food" for "dewberry" with "wine".
The function will also do the reverse and add a multi to a single dimensional array or even a 2 tier array to a 5 tier as long as the heirarchy tree is identical.

To get exactly same result like in PHP 5.3, the foreach loop in your code should look like:
<?php
...
$count = func_num_args();
for ($i = 1; $i < $count; $i++) {
...
}
...
?>
Check on this code:
<?php
$base = array('id' => NULL, 'login' => NULL, 'credit' => NULL);
$arr1 = array('id' => 2, 'login' => NULL, 'credit' => 5);
$arr2 = array('id' => NULL, 'login' => 'john.doe', 'credit' => 100);
$result = array_replace($base, $arr1, $arr2);
/*
correct output:
array(3) {
"id" => NULL
"login" => string(8) "john.doe"
"credit" => int(100)
}
your output:
array(3) {
"id" => int(2)
"login" => NULL
"credit" => int(5)
}
*/
?>
Function array_replace "replaces elements from passed arrays into the first array" -- this means replace from top-right to first, then from top-right - 1 to first, etc, etc...

a little enhancement to dyer85 at gmail dot com's function below:
<?php
if (!function_exists('array_replace'))
{
function array_replace( array &$array, array &$array1, $filterEmpty=false )
{
$args = func_get_args();
$count = func_num_args()-1;
for ($i = 0; $i < $count; ++$i) {
if (is_array($args[$i])) {
foreach ($args[$i] as $key => $val) {
if ($filterEmpty && empty($val)) continue;
$array[$key] = $val;
}
}
else {
trigger_error(
__FUNCTION__ . '(): Argument #' . ($i+1) . ' is not an array',
E_USER_WARNING
);
return NULL;
}
}
return $array;
}
}
?>
this will allow you to "tetris-like" merge arrays:
<?php
$a= array(
0 => "foo",
1 => "",
2 => "baz"
);
$b= array(
0 => "",
1 => "bar",
2 => ""
);
print_r(array_replace($a,$b, true));
?>
results in:
Array
(
[0] => foo
[1] => bar
[2] => baz
)

For a backward compatible alternative, you might try something like this:
<?php
if (!function_exists('array_replace'))
{
function array_replace( array &$array, array &$array1 )
{
$args = func_get_args();
$count = func_num_args();
for ($i = 0; $i < $count; ++$i) {
if (is_array($args[$i])) {
foreach ($args[$i] as $key => $val) {
$array[$key] = $val;
}
}
else {
trigger_error(
__FUNCTION__ . '(): Argument #' . ($i+1) . ' is not an array',
E_USER_WARNING
);
return NULL;
}
}
return $array;
}
}
?>
