#43322 [Opn]: $this[] not produces error

ID: 43322 Updated by: tony2001@php.net Reported By: felipensp at gmail dot com Status: Open Bug Type: Scripting Engine problem PHP Version: 6CVS-2007-11-18 (snap) New Comment: There is nothing wrong in $this[] syntax, as it's used in ArrayAccess (see Zend/tests/bug33710.phpt for example), hence we cannot detect this in compile time. But we can't check for $this in runtime, since that would be a major performance hit. So this is clear "Won't fix" in my opinion.
