How to instantiate stdClass in place

Is it it possible to do this in php?

Javascript code开发者_JAVA百科:

var a = {name: "john", age: 13}; //a.name = "john"; a.age = 13

Instantiate the stdClass variable on the fly ?

---

Try using the associative array syntax, and casting to object:

$a = (object)array('name' => 'john', 'age' => 13);
echo $a->name; // 'john'

---

You can also do:

$a = new stdClass;
$a->name = 'john';
$a->age = 13;

---

Another way:

$text = '{"name": "john", "age": 13}';
$obj = json_decode($text);
