PHP Bug Type: Feature/Change Request
Bug description: add foreach reference values
Just a small request that could be fairly useful.
Say you have an array of objects, $objects. Right now, doing:
foreach ($objects as $obj) {
$obj->something();
}
will create a copy of each object (using unnecessary memory) and call
something() on the copy, not the actual object (which is bad if it's a
mutator function of that class).
The best way to do it now is to do:
foreach (array_keys($objects) as $key) {
$objects[$key]->something();
}
but it would be very cool if php had the syntax:
foreach ($objects as &$obj)
where it would create $obj as a reference to each object.
thanks
