php - Getting the property value from an array contained in an object that itself is contained in another object -

i trying property of array contained within object contained in object.

the code below var_dumped object . trying value property identity i.e 'identity' => int 101 ..

i put 'identity' => 101 in asterisk demonstration purposes only; rendered values not have asterisk. 4th last line of code.

i know how values multidimensional arrays; not sure multidimensional objects

  object(zfcuser\authentication\adapter\adapterchain)[373]   protected 'event' =>      object(zfcuser\authentication\adapter\adapterchainevent)[456]       protected 'name' => string 'authenticate.success' (length=20)       protected 'target' =>          &object(zfcuser\authentication\adapter\adapterchain)[373]       protected 'params' =>          array (size=4)           'request' =>              object(zend\http\phpenvironment\request)[194]               ...           **'identity' => int 101**           'code' => int 1           'messages' =>              array (size=1) 

to access object's property syntax used ->, in object->property. access given property, it's visibility has public opposed example, properties have protected visibility.

to access identity need run $object->event->params['identity'], need define getter function or change properties' visibility public.

an example of getter function

public function __get($name){     return $this->$name; } 

or single property

public function getevent(){     return $this->event; } 

then syntax used ( assuming define getter function params )

$object->getevent()->getproperties()['identity'];
