function menu_tree_data in Drupal 7

Same name and namespace in other branches

1. 6 includes/menu.inc \menu_tree_data()

Sorts and returns the built data representing a menu tree.

Parameters

$links: A flat array of menu links that are part of the menu. Each array element is an associative array of information about the menu link, containing the fields from the {menu_links} table, and optionally additional information from the {menu_router} table, if the menu item appears in both tables. This array must be ordered depth-first. See _menu_build_tree() for a sample query.

$parents: An array of the menu link ID values that are in the path from the current page to the root of the menu tree.

$depth: The minimum depth to include in the returned menu tree.

Return value

An array of menu links in the form of a tree. Each item in the tree is an associative array containing:

• link: The menu link item from $links, with additional element 'in_active_trail' (TRUE if the link ID was in $parents).
• below: An array containing the sub-tree of this item, where each element is a tree item array with 'link' and 'below' elements. This array will be empty if the menu item has no items in its sub-tree having a depth greater than or equal to $depth.
