ID: 32789 User updated by: php at thoftware dot de Reported By: php at thoftware dot de Status: Bogus Bug Type: Arrays related Operating System: * PHP Version: 4.3.11 New Comment:
I don't know, who is deleting my submissions, but I think it would be better to delete the whole thread instead of deleting only some submissions which makes the references in other submissions nonsense. I accept that you don't accept this as a bug and I wont post any new found bugs as it seems to be easyer to handle with bugs than to get a bug reported. Nice job. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-04-26 14:08:02] php at thoftware dot de Looks like nobody is listening here - sigh. After discussing this in another forum, we are still sure this _is_ a bug. As I was ordered not to set this bug back to open we are trying to start over with a new bug-report in a new location (it's not really a bug in array_pop() but something in the reference system). Someone with a hopefully better ability to explain where the bug is located will post it and I will add a link to it afterwards - hope that's o.k. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-04-25 22:18:30] php at thoftware dot de Maybe this one from Waq explains it in a better way why I think it's a bug: http://www.php.de/viewtopic.php?p=252840#252840 (it's from a german forum where the people tried to understand what I tried to say). I didn't ask for help, the script that crashed because of this bogus bug was already fixed when I submitted this. Sorry for taking your time, surely PHP acts perfect in this case :-( P.S. Why are you deleting your comments? Do you think it makes it even more bogus when it looks like I'm talking to myself? Not nice :-( ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-04-23 09:05:35] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sorry, but your problem does not imply a bug in PHP itself. For a list of more appropriate places to ask for help using PHP, please visit http://www.php.net/support.php as this bug system is not the appropriate forum for asking support questions. Due to the volume of reports we can not explain in detail here why your report is not a bug. The support channels will be able to provide an explanation for you. Thank you for your interest in PHP. bugs is not a helpdesk - please leave this as bogus and ask on php-general. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-04-22 15:56:37] php at thoftware dot de Sorry again, maybe I should stop coding %-(, this is the real Actual result: -------------- it's forever mine noone else should be able to change it it's mine this is my cache for the example directly above ... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-04-22 15:54:09] php at thoftware dot de Sorry, the fatal error results from the result of cache() being an empty array (but that may be another bug?), correct code should be: Reproduce code: --------------- class foobar { var $cache = array(); function cache() { if (!count($this->cache)) { $this->cache[1] = array( 'this is my cache<br>', 'it\'s mine<br>', 'noone else should be able to change it<br>', 'it\'s forever mine<br>', ); } return($this->cache[1]); } } $foobar =& new foobar(); echo array_pop($foobar->cache()); echo array_pop($foobar->cache()); echo array_pop($foobar->cache()); echo array_pop($foobar->cache()); Expected result: ---------------- it's forever mine it's forever mine it's forever mine it's forever mine Actual result: -------------- Fatal error: Only variables can be passed by reference in ... Using a static variable within the method will work like the example using a plain function, using an object-variable will work like shown above, even if you remove the '[1]'-part. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
