replace_recursive

Replaces elements from passed arrays or objects into the first array or object recursively.

public  replace_recursive({Array})

NOTE: This function is almost identical to the PHP function array_replace_recursive() except that it also works with stdClass objects.

replace_recursive() replaces the values of item1 with the same values from all the following items. If a key from the first item exists in the second item, its value will be replaced by the value from the second item. If the key exists in the second item, and not the first, it will be created in the first item. If a key only exists in the first item, it will be left as is. If several items are passed for replacement, they will be processed in order, the later item overwriting the previous values.

replace_recursive() is recursive : it will recurse into item and apply the same process to the inner value.

When the value in item1 is scalar, it will be replaced by the value in item2, may it be scalar, array or stdClass. When the value in item1 and item2 are both arrays or objects, replace_recursive() will replace their respective value recursively.
