If the container has attributes, it will use '@' as key for attributes and '#' for values. index is here because multiple directives and sections can have the same name, the toArray() method takes care of that.

Return value

array - an array representation of the Config_Container tree

Note

This function can not be called statically.

Example

Example 19-1. Using toArray()()

$attributes = array('id' => 'db', 'language' => 'en');      $section =& new Config_Container('section', 'main', null, $attributes);      $section->createDirective('authentication', 'one', array('type' => 'mysql'));      $section->createDirective('authentication', 'two', array('type' => 'oracle'));      $section->createDirective('permission', 'group');      var_dump($section->toArray());

Example 19-2. Resulting array with attributes and directives with same name or not

array(1) {   ["main"]=>   array(3) {     ["@"]=>     array(2) {       ["id"]=>       string(2) "db"       ["language"]=>       string(2) "en"     }     ["authentication"]=>     array(2) {       [0]=>       array(2) {         ["#"]=>         string(3) "one"         ["@"]=>         array(1) {           ["type"]=>           string(5) "mysql"         }       }       [1]=>       array(2) {         ["#"]=>         string(3) "two"         ["@"]=>         array(1) {           ["type"]=>           string(6) "oracle"         }       }     }     ["permission"]=>     string(5) "group"   } }
