I happen to experience this problem with magic functions only, i
understand what You wrote, still, the question is there... May i hope
that You guys will put this "expected" behavior into the bug fix chain
or should i accept the fact that it won't get fixed ever?

This is "expected", the recursion protection that allows you to
dynamically create properties inside __set is not enabled before the
first __set called via overloading.
Example:
class A {
public function __set($n, $v) {
echo "Setting $n = $v\n";
$this->$n = $v;
}
}
$a = new A;
$a->k1 = "v1";
$a->__set("k2", "v2");
Will end up outputting:
Setting k1 = v1
Setting k2 = v2
Setting k2 = v2
because the recursion protection isn't there when you do a manual call
to __set().

I've deleted my php installation, kept only php.ini.
downloaded and installed php from this location it:
http://snaps.php.net/win32/php5.2-win32-latest.zip
Executed the code, here are the results:
Calling: setRaw()
Class: A| Passed Value:shouldn't be prefixed
Class: B| Passed Value:shouldn't be prefixed
Class: A| Passed Value:(prefixed) shouldn't be prefixed
Calling: __set()
Class: B| Passed Value:should be prefixed
Class: A| Passed Value:(prefixed) should be prefixed
Variable after setraw: (prefixed) shouldn't be prefixed
Variable after set: (prefixed) should be prefixed
Seems it still exists.

Description:
------------
If i have an overloaded __set function in a class and call
parent::__set from another function, the parent calls the child's __set
back and a loop gets created like this:
parent::__set (initial call)
child::_set
parent::_set
I need __set function to do some prefixing by default when assigning
new string properties by default, i need a custom function to assign
un-prefixed properties too, if there is a need (will happen very
rarely)... I need this to auto prefix string variables passed to my view
object (they gotta be passed as object properties), the MVC framework is
a 3rd party framework, i'm extending it's view object and i don't want
to modify the original source...
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
class A
{
public function __set($pKey, $pValue)
{
echo("Class: ".get_class()."| Passed Value:".$pValue."<BR>");
$this->$pKey = $pValue;
return true;
}
}
class B extends A
{
function setRaw($pKey, $pValue)
{
parent::__set($pKey, $pValue);
}
function __set($pKey, $pValue)
{
echo("Class: ".get_class()."| Passed Value:".$pValue."<BR>");
$pValue = $this->prefix($pValue);
parent::__set($pKey, $pValue);
}
function prefix($pValue)
{
if(is_string($pValue))
{
return "(prefixed) ".$pValue;
}
return $pValue;
}
}
$b = new B();
echo("Calling: setRaw()<br>");
$b->setRaw("raw", "shouldn't be prefixed");
echo("<br>");
echo("Calling: __set()<br>");
$b->prefixed = "should be prefixed";
echo("<br>Variable after setraw: ".$b->raw);
echo("<br>Variable after set: ".$b->prefixed);
echo("<br>");
?>
Expected result:
----------------
Calling: setRaw()
Class: A| Passed Value:shouldn't be prefixed
Calling: __set()
Class: B| Passed Value:should be prefixed
Class: A| Passed Value:(prefixed) should be prefixed
Variable after setRaw: shouldn't be prefixed
Variable after set: (prefixed) should be prefixed
Actual result:
--------------
Calling: setRaw()
Class: A| Passed Value:shouldn't be prefixed
Class: B| Passed Value:shouldn't be prefixed
Class: A| Passed Value:(prefixed) shouldn't be prefixed
Calling: __set()
Class: B| Passed Value:should be prefixed
Class: A| Passed Value:(prefixed) should be prefixed
Variable after setraw: (prefixed) shouldn't be prefixed
Variable after set: (prefixed) should be prefixed
