Question

I have an error when I am going to insert to database.

I have this array:

When I print_r($students) its structure is this:

Array ( [0] => stdClass Object ( [lastname] => en [firstname] => estudianten [code] => U0009876 [id_estud] => 5 ) [1] => stdClass Object ( [lastname] => Euno [firstname] => estudiante| [code] => U00020814 [id_estud] => 6 ) )

In my model I have this code:

function insert_register_students($students) {
        foreach ($students as $student) {
            foreach ($student['dates'] as $key => $value) {
                $data = array(
                    'field1' =>$student['id'],
                    'field2' => $key,
                    'field3' => '',
                );
                $this->db->insert('mytable', $data);
            }
        }
    }

In the model how can I do reference that $students is a stdClass Object? The last code in the model works well for me if $students is an array but now has stdClass Object.

What is my error?

Thanks for your help.

Answer 1

Actually you have an array of stdObject. On each iteration in the foreach you handle an object. So if you want to access its properties you have to do

'field1' => $student->property,

instead of

'field1' => $student['property']
