Yep, it's that easy. :-)
// array(1) {
// [0]=>
// int(1)
// }
var_dump((array)1);
// array(1) {
// [0]=>
// string(1) "a"

var_dump((array)'a');

class b {
public $c = 'd';
}
var_dump((array)new b());

A. I gotcha now. Yeah I started using that just recently either 5.2.11 or 5.2.13 (not sure which) You can typecast an object to an array that easily?

You're right, but this is about how 5.2.10 ignores the second parameter and
always returns a class, which appears to be a bug. I'm not sure which other
versions have this same problem, but 5.2.11 has correct behavior, which
seems to suggest they found and fixed it by then. I can't find an entry for
this problem in PHP's bug database, however.
My suggestion to typecast the result of json_decode() should only be
followed if you need an array and are required to work with version 5.2.10.

I don't see a "available starting in 5.x.x" notice, so I think it's
been there for a long time...
http://www.php.net/json_decode
Second parameter of true makes it return an array instead of a class
(I just had to use this recently, that's why it popped in my mind)

By the way, if you're stuck on 5.2.10, you could simply cast the result to
array:
var_dump((array)json_decode('{"_urls": ["a", "b"]}'));

I personally don't mind since my client (Gmail) hides quoted text by default, but it does make things easier if you can see the quoted text.
Re: [PHP] Inconsistent json_decode() results
Hi I have this problem too. I think that the version of php results this problem. I have searched later but could not find any solution. 2010/5/5 François Beausoleil : > Hello all! > > We're seeing inconsistent json decoding between PHP versions: > http://gist.github.com/390090 > > Calling json_decode() from 5.2.6 returns an associative array when asked, > while 5.2.10 always returns a stdClass.
