ID: 51555 Comment by: sinisaculic at gmail dot com Reported by: sinisaculic at gmail dot com Summary: Internal class reference resets the attribute Status: Bogus Type: Bug Package: Class/Object related Operating System: Windows 7 PHP Version: 5.3SVN-2010-04-14 (snap) New Comment: Ups.... mixed up C with PhP.... can someone delete this >.<` Note to my self references and pointers are not the same PhP duos not have pointers.... Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-04-14 16:02:59] ras...@php.net Yes, because it should be $b = &$this->t; ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-04-14 15:59:38] sinisaculic at gmail dot com Description: ------------ I know it is uncommon usage of reference but i have a pretty complicated equation inside a function, and i referenced a value like $a &= %this->bla... It is easier to write $a instead $this->a... in case you have a BIG equation... And imagine my surprise when i saw that the value was not set... my guess is that this code somehow screws the internal references.... Searched here and nothing showed up for classes... just run the script it should output the error... don`t know about UNIX OP but i doubt it is different... here is how i get the error: class a { public $t; function buga(){ $this->t = 'buga'; } function bla(){ $b &=$this->t; echo $b; } } $a= new a; $a->buga(); $a->bla(); //this outputs Notice: Undefined variable: b in C:\...\test.php on line XX I use Wamp Server package 2.0f latest version... Hope i was right about it... if not, Sorry... With respect SiniÅ¡a ÄuliÄ at sinisacu...@gmail.com Test script: --------------- class a { public $t; function buga(){ $this->t = 'buga'; } function bla(){ $b &=$this->t; echo $b; } } $a= new a; $a->buga(); $a->bla(); //this outputs Notice: Undefined variable: b in C:\...\test.php on line XX Expected result: ---------------- This should output just bla Actual result: -------------- But it outputs a notice... and no variable... this outputs Notice: Undefined variable: b in C:\...\test.php on line XX ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=51555&edit=1
