The uksort() function of the ArrayObject class in PHP is used to sort the entries present in the ArrayObject according to the keys following a user-defined function. They key-value mapping is preserved after sorting the ArrayObject.

Syntax:

void uksort($comparator) 

Parameters: This function accepts a single parameter $comparator which is the user defined comparison function. This comparison function in turn accepts two arguments which are the keys of the ArrayObject and returns less than, equals to or greater than zero if the first argument is less than, equals to or greater than zero respectively.

Return Value: This function does not returns any value.

Below program illustrate the above function:




<?php
// PHP program to illustrate the
// uksort() function
  
$arr = array("1"=>"Welcome", "2" => "to", "3" => "GfG");
  
// Create array object
$arrObject = new ArrayObject($arr);
  
// Declare a comparison function to sort 
// the entries by keys in descending order
function comparison($val1, $val2) {
    if ($val1 == $val2) {
        return 0;
    }
    else if($val1 > $val2)
        return -1;
    else
        return 1;
}
  
$arrObject->uksort('comparison');
  
// Print the sorted ArrayObject
print_r($arrObject);
  
?>


Output:

ArrayObject Object
(
    [storage:ArrayObject:private] => Array
        (
            [3] => GfG
            [2] => to
            [1] => Welcome
        )
