array_udiff_uassoc
Re: "convoluted"
I think the point being made is that array_udiff() can be used not only for comparisons between homogenous arrays, as in your example (and definitely the most common need), but it can be used to compare heterogeneous arrays, too.
Consider:
<?php
function compr_1($a, $b) {
$aVal = is_array($a) ? $a['last_name'] : $a;
$bVal = is_array($b) ? $b['last_name'] : $b;
return strcasecmp($aVal, $bVal);
}
$aEmployees = array(
array('last_name' => 'Smith',
'first_name' => 'Joe',
'phone' => '555-1000'),
array('last_name' => 'Doe',
'first_name' => 'John',
'phone' => '555-2000'),
array('last_name' => 'Flagg',
'first_name' => 'Randall',
'phone' => '666-1000')
);
$aNames = array('Doe', 'Smith', 'Johnson');
$result = array_udiff($aEmployees, $aNames, "compr_1");
print_r($result);
?>
Allowing me to get the "employee" that's not in the name list:
Array ( [2] => Array ( [last_name] => Flagg [first_name] => Randall [phone] => 666-1000 ) )
Something interesting to note, is that the two arguments to the compare function don't correspond to array1 and array2. That's why there has to be logic in it to handle that either of the arguments might be pointing to the more complex employee array. (Found this out the hard way.)
array_udiff
(PHP 5)
array_udiff — Computa la diferencia entre matrices, usando una llamada de retorno para la comparación de datos
Descripción
array array_udiff
( array $matriz1
, array $matriz2
[, array $ ...
], callback $func_comparacion_datos
)
array_udiff() devuelve una matriz que contiene todos los valores de matriz1 que no están presentes en ninguno de los otros argumentos. Note que las claves son preservadas. Para la comparación de datos, se usa func_comparacion_datos . Esta función debe devolver un entero menor que, igual, o mayor que cero si el primer argumento es considerado como menor, igual, o mayor que el segundo, respectivamente. Esto en contraste a array_diff(), la cual usa una función interna para la comparación de datos.
Example #1 Ejemplo de array_udiff()
<?php
class cr {
private $miembro_privado;
function cr($val)
{
$this->miembro_privado = $val;
}
function func_comp_cr($a, $b)
{
if ($a->miembro_privado === $b->miembro_privado) return 0;
return ($a->miembro_privado > $b->miembro_privado)? 1:-1;
}
}
$a = array("0.1" => new cr(9), "0.5" => new cr(12), 0 => new cr(23), 1=> new cr(4), 2 => new cr(-15),);
$b = array("0.2" => new cr(9), "0.5" => new cr(22), 0 => new cr(3), 1=> new cr(4), 2 => new cr(-15),);
$resultado = array_udiff($a, $b, array("cr", "func_comp_cr"));
print_r($resultado);
?>
El resultado del ejemplo seria:
Array ( [0.5] => cr Object ( [miembro_privado:private] => 12 ) [0] => cr Object ( [miembro_privado:private] => 23 ) )
Note: Por favor note que esta función sólo analiza una dimensión de una matriz n-dimensional. Por supuesto, puede analizar dimensiones más profundas usando array_udiff($matriz1[0], $matriz2[0], "data_compare_func");.
Vea también array_diff(), array_diff_assoc(), array_diff_uassoc(), array_udiff_assoc(), array_udiff_uassoc(), array_intersect(), array_intersect_assoc(), array_uintersect(), array_uintersect_assoc() y array_uintersect_uassoc().

I think the example given here using classes is convoluting things too much to demonstrate what this function does.
array_udiff() will walk through array_values($a) and array_values($b) and compare each value by using the passed in callback function.
To put it another way, array_udiff() compares $a[0] to $b[0], $b[1], $b[2], and $b[3] using the provided callback function. If the callback returns zero for any of the comparisons then $a[0] will not be in the returned array from array_udiff(). It then compares $a[1] to $b[0], $b[1], $b[2], and $b[3]. Then, finally, $a[2] to $b[0], $b[1], $b[2], and $b[3].
For example, compare_ids($a[0], $b[0]) === -5 while compare_ids($a[1], $b[1]) === 0. Therefore, $a[1] is not returned from array_udiff() since it is present in $b.
<?
$a = array(
array(
'id' => 10,
'name' => 'John',
'color' => 'red',
),
array(
'id' => 20,
'name' => 'Elise',
'color' => 'blue',
),
array(
'id' => 30,
'name' => 'Mark',
'color' => 'red',
),
);
$b = array(
array(
'id' => 15,
'name' => 'Nancy',
'color' => 'black',
),
array(
'id' => 20,
'name' => 'Elise',
'color' => 'blue',
),
array(
'id' => 30,
'name' => 'Mark',
'color' => 'red',
),
array(
'id' => 40,
'name' => 'John',
'color' => 'orange',
),
);
function compare_ids($a, $b)
{
return ($a['id'] - $b['id']);
}
function compare_names($a, $b)
{
return strcmp($a['name'], $b['name']);
}
$ret = array_udiff($a, $b, 'compare_ids');
var_dump($ret);
$ret = array_udiff($b, $a, 'compare_ids');
var_dump($ret);
$ret = array_udiff($a, $b, 'compare_names');
var_dump($ret);
?>
Which returns the following.
In the first return we see that $b has no entry in it with an id of 10.
<?
array(1) {
[0]=>
array(3) {
["id"]=>
int(10)
["name"]=>
string(4) "John"
["color"]=>
string(3) "red"
}
}
?>
In the second return we see that $a has no entry in it with an id of 15 or 40.
<?
array(2) {
[0]=>
array(3) {
["id"]=>
int(15)
["name"]=>
string(5) "Nancy"
["color"]=>
string(5) "black"
}
[3]=>
array(3) {
["id"]=>
int(40)
["name"]=>
string(4) "John"
["color"]=>
string(6) "orange"
}
}
?>
In third return we see that all names in $a are in $b (even though the entry in $b whose name is 'John' is different, the anonymous function is only comparing names).
<?
array(0) {
}
?>

Very easy way of achieving a case-insensitive version of array_diff (or indeed array_diff_assoc, array_intersect or any of these types of functions which have a similar function that takes a callback function as one of their parameters):
array_udiff($array1, $array2, 'strcasecmp');
This works because strcasecmp() compares two strings case-insensitively, as compared to the array_diff() which compares two strings by using the == operator, which is case-sensitive.

This functionality is now implemented in the PEAR package PHP_Compat.
