I have a bug report for a user of my Google Wave extension: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:GoogleWave
http://code.google.com/p/micke/source/browse/GoogleWave/GoogleWave.php (source) It seems Parser.php sends the parser object to my function as a value($parser) rather than as a reference (&$parser): [Tue Oct 06 16:57:53 2009] [error] [client x.x.x.x.] PHP Warning: Parameter 3 to waveRender() expected to be a reference, value given in C:\\Apache2.2\\htdocs\\mediawiki\\includes\\parser\\Parser.php on line 3243, referer: ... Why is this? I don't get an error like this in any of my test installations (although I have never tried it in a Windows environment). Googleing gives me nothing... My questions are these: Why does this happen? Is it something with the version of PHP? What are the benefits in my case of wanting the parser object as a reference instead of a value? That is, should I do: function waveRender($input, $argv, $parser) rather than: function waveRender($input, $argv, &$parser) I just set it up the way I did after reading the docs on http://mediawiki.org where it alwas seems to be passed by reference. The users bug report can be found here btw: http://groups.google.com/group/google-wave-api/browse_thread/thread/8597137082778b8a/9933d6aee588372a /five messages down) _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
