How To Declare and Initialize PHP Objects Without Class?

In this article, we go over how to initialize an object in PHP without Class. Initializing an object means that we give an object that has been created from a class a value or values.

For example, say we create an object named car from the class of the vehicle. The vehicles class represents a range of vehicles and a car is just a particular object or instance of the class of this vehicle. We can then assign values to the car such as the car’s color, the car’s cost, the car’s engine, etc. If we set the car’s color to red, we have initialized the object with this color property.

So initializing an object is just giving values to the object, that represent the object’s properties. Using new stdClass() to create an object without class: For creating an object without a class, we will use a new stdClass() operator and then add some properties to them.

PHP is an object-oriented language, although it does not have to be used since most PHP functions are not object-oriented. In object-oriented programming, the class is the object’s definition, whereas the object is an instance of an object, meaning that you can create many objects from one class.

Example # 01:

$myobject = new STDClass();
$myobject->member1 = "hello, I'm 1";
$myobject->member1o = new stdClass;
$myobject->member1o ->member1 = "hello, I'm 1.1";
$myobject->member2 = "hello, I'm 2";

Example # 02:

$myobject = (object)array(
     'member1' => "hello, I'm 1",
     'member1o' => (object)array(
         'member1' => "hello, I'm 1o.1",
     ),
     'member2' => "hello, I'm 2",
);

Example # 03:

$myobject = (object)[
     'member1' => "hello, I'm 1",
     'member1o' => (object)['member1' => "hello, I'm 1o.1"],
     'member2' => "hello, I'm 2",
];

Example # 04:

$myobject = (object) array("name" => "member 1", array("name" => "member 1.1") );

Example # 05:

      // Create an associative array
      $studentMarks = array(
          "Maths"=>95,
          "Physics"=>90,
          "Chemistry"=>96,
          "English"=>93,
          "Computer"=>98
      );
      // Use typecast to convert the array into an object
      $myobject = (object) $studentMarks;

You Can Convert An Object Into Associative Array Too:

$associatoveArrayFromObject= array($myobject );
