Description: More ways of passing by refrence
As of 4.04, two new ways of reference passing are 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 have requested to much :))
