Bug description: Cant set COM properties
Description:
------------
I am using PHP 5.1.2 on Apache 2.0. In my PHP code I am trying to set a
COM OLE poprerty:
$simcase->ObjectValue($inobj1, $inpropname1,"",$inunits1)=$inval1;
($simcase is a COM object)
Using:
echo $simcase->ObjectValue($inobj1, $inpropname1,"",$inunits1);
works fine.
Expected result:
----------------
I expected the method to execute and set the property without any problem.
According to the type library what I have written is perfectly legal and
works with VBScript etc.
HRESULT ObjectValue([in] IDispatch* object, [in] BSTR variable,
[in,optional] BSTR subVariable, [in,optional] BSTR units, [out, retval]
double* value);
[helpstring("Sets"),propput,helpcontext(NO_HELP_PANEL)]
HRESULT ObjectValue([in] IDispatch* object, [in] BSTR variable,
[in,optional] BSTR subVariable, [in,optional] BSTR units, [in] double
value);
[helpstring("Gets"),propget,helpcontext(NO_HELP_PANEL)]
Actual result:
--------------
Fatal error: Can't use method return value in write context...
With com_set being gone, I cant find any work around. I also found a
comment somewhere saying "we cant support ()= so we have "[]=".
But what do you do if your property also takes arguments?
