定义:

$copy = create_function('$a', 'return $a;');

复制$_ARRAY到$_ARRAY2:

$_ARRAY2 = array_map($copy, $_ARRAY);

foreach($a as $key => $val) $b[$key] = $val ;

同时保留键和值。数组a是数组b的精确副本

因为这在任何答案中都没有涉及，现在在PHP 5.3中可用(假设原始帖子使用5.2)。

为了维护数组结构并更改其值，我更喜欢使用array_replace或array_replace_recursive，这取决于我的用例。

http://php.net/manual/en/function.array-replace.php

下面是一个使用array_replace和array_replace_recursive的示例，演示它能够维护索引顺序并能够删除引用。

下面的代码使用PHP 5.4以来可用的短数组语法编写，该语法将array()替换为[]。 http://php.net/manual/en/language.types.array.php

适用于偏移量索引数组和名称索引数组

$o1 = new stdClass;
$a = 'd';
//This is the base array or the initial structure
$o1->ar1 = ['a', 'b', ['ca', 'cb']];
$o1->ar1[3] = & $a; //set 3rd offset to reference $a

//direct copy (not passed by reference)
$o1->ar2 = $o1->ar1; //alternatively array_replace($o1->ar1, []);
$o1->ar1[0] = 'z'; //set offset 0 of ar1 = z do not change ar2
$o1->ar1[3] = 'e'; //$a = e (changes value of 3rd offset to e in ar1 and ar2)

//copy and remove reference to 3rd offset of ar1 and change 2nd offset to a new array
$o1->ar3 = array_replace($o1->ar1, [2 => ['aa'], 3 => 'd']);

//maintain original array of the 2nd offset in ar1 and change the value at offset 0
//also remove reference of the 2nd offset
//note: offset 3 and 2 are transposed
$o1->ar4 = array_replace_recursive($o1->ar1, [3 => 'f', 2 => ['bb']]);

var_dump($o1);

输出:

["ar1"]=>
  array(4) {
    [0]=>
    string(1) "z"
    [1]=>
    string(1) "b"
    [2]=>
    array(2) {
      [0]=>
      string(2) "ca"
      [1]=>
      string(2) "cb"
    }
    [3]=>
    &string(1) "e"
  }
  ["ar2"]=>
  array(4) {
    [0]=>
    string(1) "a"
    [1]=>
    string(1) "b"
    [2]=>
    array(2) {
      [0]=>
      string(2) "ca"
      [1]=>
      string(2) "cb"
    }
    [3]=>
    &string(1) "e"
  }
  ["ar3"]=>
  array(4) {
    [0]=>
    string(1) "z"
    [1]=>
    string(1) "b"
    [2]=>
    array(1) {
      [0]=>
      string(2) "aa"
    }
    [3]=>
    string(1) "d"
  }
  ["ar4"]=>
  array(4) {
    [0]=>
    string(1) "z"
    [1]=>
    string(1) "b"
    [2]=>
    array(2) {
      [0]=>
      string(2) "bb"
      [1]=>
      string(2) "cb"
    }
    [3]=>
    string(1) "f"
  }

这是我在Php中复制数组的方式:

function equal_array($arr){
  $ArrayObject = new ArrayObject($arr);
  return $ArrayObject->getArrayCopy();  
}

$test = array("aa","bb",3);
$test2 = equal_array($test);
print_r($test2);

这个输出:

Array
(
[0] => aa
[1] => bb
[2] => 3
)

private function cloneObject($mixed)
{
    switch (true) {
        case is_object($mixed):
            return clone $mixed;
        case is_array($mixed):
            return array_map(array($this, __FUNCTION__), $mixed);
        default:
            return $mixed;
    }
}

当你这样做时

$array_x = $array_y;

PHP复制了数组，所以我不确定你是如何被烧毁的。为了你的案子，

global $foo;
$foo = $obj->bar;

应该没问题。

我认为，要想被复制，要么必须使用引用，要么需要克隆数组中的对象。
