ID: 62435 Comment by: dagguh at gmail dot com Reported by: grzegorz129 at gmail dot com Summary: Shorted if and references handling Status: Open Type: Feature/Change Request Package: Scripting Engine problem Operating System: N/A PHP Version: 5.4.4 Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: "Short if" is known as ternary operator. What you want to write is: $this->_currentExceptionInfo =& ((isset($this->_exceptionsMap[$code])) ? $this- >_exceptionsMap[$code] : $this->_exceptionsMap[self::X_INTERNAL]); BTW. Using references is a bad idea. This request is invalid. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2012-06-28 09:41:09] grzegorz129 at gmail dot com Description: ------------ PHP doesn't allow to use references in short if construction - I don't have idea why it's limited. I think it should be improved in future releases. Test script: --------------- $this->_currentExceptionInfo = ((isset($this->_exceptionsMap[$code])) ? &$this->_exceptionsMap[$code] : &$this->_exceptionsMap[self::X_INTERNAL]); //Error //The same function but it works as expected if(isset($this->_exceptionsMap[$code])) $this->_currentExceptionInfo = &$this->_exceptionsMap[$code]; else $this->_currentExceptionInfo = &$this->_exceptionsMap[self::X_INTERNAL]; ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=62435&edit=1
