From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Operating system: any PHP version: 4.0.5 PHP Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Bug description: More ways of passing by refrence As of 4.04, two new ways of reference passing is added: func(new class()) and func(func2()) while func2 is defined as &func2(){...}. They are VERY good for OOP. But if the following two syntaxes are also supported, it will be really good. 1. func(&new class()); 2. $obj =& func_get_arg($i); The first one will make this possible: $row =& $table->add(&new TableRow("valign=top")); $cell =& $row->add(&new TableData("width=50%")); while add is defined as &add($obj) {...;return $obj;} And the second will make this possible: $cell -> add(&$text1, &$text2, &$text3, ...); while add function is going to use variable number of arguments. But I didn't count on the following syntax being supported too: foreach ($arr as &$value) {...} ( since there is a walk-arround: $value =& $arr[$i] ) $cell =& $table->add(&new TableRow())->add(&new TableData()) { since I may request to much :)) -- Edit Bug report at: http://bugs.php.net/?id=11596&edit=1 -- PHP Development Mailing List <http://www.php.net/> To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
