PHP STD Class and Objects

@Sinnbeck SO the one with speech marks is this code

   $object = new \stdClass();
    $object->subject ='testing' . " - " ;

The one without is just a construct parameter

  public function __construct(
        public ?string        $createSubject = 'test',

@Elliot_putt So you wrote those two lines and the output above just magically appeared? Or are you doing dd() or dump() or var_dump() or print_r() ? The first one looks like json, and in json the key is always wrapped in quotes

@Sinnbeck Haha sorry dd() on both

@Elliot_putt Ah ok :) So the second one I assume is an actual class then. Let me just recreate it.

@Sinnbeck Yes Correct, just to put it into perspective it's weird I am writing code for an API and it will only accept the JSON body if it's formatted with the string, I don't know haha weird.

@Elliot_putt Yeah you need keys to be wrapped with "". That is the json spec. But laravel does this for you automatically. No need to do it manually.

return response()->json($someData);

@Sinnbeck Omg, I never knew that existed, great thanks, life saver!
