Sort Object in PHP

Question

What is an elegant way to sort objects in PHP? I would love to accomplish something similar to this.

$sortedObjectArary = sort($unsortedObjectArray, $Object-         


        

Answer 1

For php >= 5.3

function osort(&$array, $prop)
{
    usort($array, function($a, $b) use ($prop) {
        return $a->$prop > $b->$prop ? 1 : -1;
    }); 
}

Note that this uses Anonymous functions / closures. Might find reviewing the php docs on that useful.
