#41603 [NEW]: foreach not manipulating last element when passed by reference

From: david at terrainferno dot net Operating system: Windows XP PHP version: 5.2.3 PHP Bug Type: Arrays related Bug description: foreach not manipulating last element when passed by reference Description: ------------ This was reported in 2006 in the foreach user comment http://uk.php.net/manual/en/control-structures.foreach.php#60806, but using php5 using references in a foreach loop, manipulating the last element in an array seems to have no effect, the reference is referred to as $v. Reproduce code: --------------- // fails to work as expected $ar = array(1,2,3,4); foreach ($ar as &$v){ $v *= 2; } foreach($ar as $v){ echo $v . '<br>'; } // works correctly $ar = array(1,2,3,4); foreach ($ar as &$o){ $o *= 2; } foreach($ar as $o){ echo $o . '<br>'; } Expected result: ---------------- 2 4 6 8 Actual result: -------------- 2 4 6 6 -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=41603&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 4.4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41603&r=trysnapshot44 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.2): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41603&r=trysnapshot52 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 6.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41603&r=trysnapshot60 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41603&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41603&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41603&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41603&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41603&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41603&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41603&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41603&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41603&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41603&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41603&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41603&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41603&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41603&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41603&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41603&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41603&r=mysqlcfg
