retrieving array value having symbol as object using foreach - php

Question

I would like to retrieve the field names in the database, one of which named 'wardno/houseno'. When i tried to retrieve it as object using foreach i'm getting
My code,
$this->db->select('*');
$this->db->from('tbl_application');
$this->db->where('app_no', '1/ML/201314/TVM');
$q=$this->db->get();
foreach($q->result() as $row)
echo $row->wardno/houseno;
The error shows,
A PHP Error was encountered
Severity: Notice
Message: Undefined property: stdClass::$wardno
Filename: controllers/admin_sona.php
Line Number: 19
A PHP Error was encountered
Severity: Notice
Message: Use of undefined constant houseno - assumed 'houseno'
Filename: controllers/admin_sona.php
Line Number: 19
A PHP Error was encountered
Severity: Warning
Message: Division by zero
Filename: controllers/admin_sona.php
Line Number: 19
Is it possible to retrieve the database value with symbol as object?

Answer 1

Can you please try to give
foreach($q->result_array() as $row)
echo $row['wardno/houseno'];// or even echo $row['wardno\/houseno'];
instead of
foreach($q->result() as $row)
echo $row->wardno/houseno;
Give it a try!
----EDIT------
As you dont want it to be converted into an array, try
echo $row[17]; //Just try. I am not sure where it hurts the code. In case of error, let me know in comments

Answer 2

try to change this:
$row->wardno
to this:
$row['wardno']
Same thing for houseno
$row['houseno']
don't know if you have afield named wardno/houseno inside your database, I thinked that you have two different fields. If is the same field I advise you to use _ instead of / inside your database.
If is the same field try this:
echo $row['wardno/houseno'];
to convert array to object try this:
function arrayToObject($array) {
if (!is_array($array)) {
return $array;
}
$object = new stdClass();
if (is_array($array) && count($array) > 0) {
foreach ($array as $name=>$value) {
$name = strtolower(trim($name));
if (!empty($name)) {
$object->$name = arrayToObject($value);
}
}
return $object;
}
else {
return FALSE;
}
}
$arr = arrayToObject($your_array);
