Traverse object element as array

[johnie]

Hi. I have an object as a result of a class execution. Among its fields there is one that contains an array of data.

Is it possible to traverse this array like mysql_fetch_array() ?
Something like

$xy->field is the array i need

while($ab = myfunction_fetch_array($xy->field)) {
. . .
}

I'm able to print_r($xy->field) but i can't work on it.
Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,
John

foreach($x->field as $value){
  ...
}

?

This might be working (i have to go home and check it).

However, what i really want is a function to act like mysql_fetch_array()

Like ..

while($ab = myfunction_fetch_array($xy->field)) {
. . .
}

I need this function because i'm stuck with a big project that needs a lot of changes, and this function, which exists all over the code, used to be there before they switched pure PHP/Mysql functions to ADOdb

function my_fetch_array(&$array, &$first) {
  if ($first) {
    $first = false;
    return reset($array);
  }
  else
    return next($array);
}

$first = true;
while ($var = my_fetch_array($xy->field, $first)) {
  do_whatever_you_want();
}

Sorry mrhappiness but it's not working.
I get

"Missing argument 2 for my_fetch_array() in ... "
