If you need to convert a nested directory tree into a multidimensional array, use this code:
<?php
$ritit = new RecursiveIteratorIterator(new RecursiveDirectoryIterator($startpath), RecursiveIteratorIterator::CHILD_FIRST);
$r = array();
foreach ($ritit as $splFileInfo) {
$path = $splFileInfo->isDir()
? array($splFileInfo->getFilename() => array())
: array($splFileInfo->getFilename());
for ($depth = $ritit->getDepth() - 1; $depth >= 0; $depth--) {
$path = array($ritit->getSubIterator($depth)->current()->getFilename() => $path);
}
$r = array_merge_recursive($r, $path);
}
print_r($r);
?>
