You could probably use the usort() family of functions to sort it either on str or pos. You have to define your own comparison function for that.

Pseudo-PHP example:

function compareItems($a, $b)
{
    if ( $a->pos < $b->pos ) return -1;
    if ( $a->pos > $b->pos ) return 1;
    return 0; // equality
}

uasort($yourArray, "compareItems");

Depending on your needs, other comparison functions might be more appropriate.

Try this function

function objSort(&$objArray,$indexFunction,$sort_flags=0) {
    $indices = array();
    foreach($objArray as $obj) {
        $indeces[] = $indexFunction($obj);
    }
    return array_multisort($indeces,$objArray,$sort_flags);
}
