Bug description: $array[xyz] = xyz; doesn't work inside a class
Description:
------------
In a function inside a class, I can only set array elements through the
$xyz = array("key"=>"val") syntax. If I attempt to set with $xyz['key'] =
'val', the whole array is replaced with 'val' and it just becomes a normal
variable, not an array.
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
class Test {
public $array;
function arraytester() {
$this->$array = array("key1"=>"val1", "key2"=>"val2");
print_r($this->$array);
$this->$array['key1'] = 'val3';
print_r($this->$array);
}
}
$class = new Test;
$class->arraytester();
?>
Expected result:
----------------
Array ( [key1] => val1 [key2] => val2 ) Array ( [key1] => val3 [key2] =>
val2 )
Actual result:
--------------
Array ( [key1] => val1 [key2] => val2 ) val3
