From: jamesn at tocquigny dot com Operating system: redhat linux PHP version: 4.3.4 PHP Bug Type: Scripting Engine problem Bug description: arrays cannot be passed by value
Description: ------------ There appears to be a problem with php that doesn't allow arrays to be passed by value. The fix appears to be something similar to: http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=6417 if (PZVAL_IS_REF(*p)) { SEPARATE_ZVAL(p); } else { zval_add_ref(p); } It would appear that that logic is missing in one place or another. I could not track it down myself. Code similar to this appears to be copy/pasted in various places. Reproduce code: --------------- $array = array(1); // This line makes the call to theFunction() act as if passed by ref.? $reference =& $array[0]; echo $array[0], '<br>'; theFunction($array); echo $array[0], '<br>'; function theFunction($array) { $array[0] = 2; } Expected result: ---------------- you should get 1 and 1 Actual result: -------------- instead you get 1 and 2! -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=27395&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (php4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27395&r=trysnapshot4 Try a CVS snapshot (php5): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27395&r=trysnapshot5 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27395&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27395&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27395&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27395&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27395&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27395&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27395&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27395&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27395&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27395&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27395&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27395&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27395&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27395&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27395&r=float
