Using PHP’s stdClass feature you can create an object, and assign data to it, without having to formally define a class. Suppose you wanted to quickly create a new object to hold some data about a book. You would do something like this:

//test2.php
$book = new stdClass;
$book->title = "Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban";
$book->author = "J. K. Rowling";
$book->publisher = "Arthur A. Levine Books";
$book->amazon_link = "http://www.amazon.com/dp/0439136369/";

echo '
' . print_r($book,1) . '</pre>';

or as :

class MyClass {
  public $ID;
}

$object = new MyClass();
$object->ID = 'foo';
echo $object->ID;

Or what if you wanted to take an array and turn it into an object? You can do that by casting the variable.

//test3.php
$array = array(
"title" => "Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban",
"author" => "J. K. Rowling",
"publisher" => "Arthur A. Levine Books",
"amazon_link" => "http://www.amazon.com/dp/0439136369/"
);
 
$books = (object) $array;

echo '
' . print_r($books,1) . '</pre>';
?>
