#44578 [NEW]: Strange Behavior of PHP using COM Object

From: hargael at gmail dot com Operating system: Windows XP PHP version: 5.2.5 PHP Bug Type: COM related Bug description: Strange Behavior of PHP using COM Object Description: ------------ I've a problem with COM objects. It's very similar to the bug #33734. In fact, I think that it is the same problem but the bug is supposed to be fixed since 5.1.0. I use the 5.2.5 and have the same problem. Excuse me for my clumsy english, I hope that my report will be readable. Reproduce code: --------------- Here is the code : <?php // Creation of the COM object $obj_persist $obj_persist = new COM("PERSIST.PersistCtrl.1")or die("Error"); $obj_appli = $obj_persist->Applications->Add($path); $obj_unite = $obj_appli->Units->Add("foo"); $obj_instance = $obj_unite->objects->add($nom_instance); $sous_objet = $obj_instance->collection("Objects"); $propriete = $sous_objet->Item("alm"); echo "Label Value : " . $propriete->Value("Label",0); //Returns the good Value // Test 1 $propriete->Value("Label",0) = "New Label"; // Fatal Error //Test 2 $propriete->Value["Label",0] = "New Label"; // Invalid number of parameters. Expected result: ---------------- I've tried many ways of writing the $propriete->Value["Label",0]. With (), [], mix of both. I cannot write on the value. I though it was a read-only value but when I tried with VBa, it worked perfectly. Here is the code. Dim SsObjs as PrsCollObjects Set SsObjs = MyInst.Collection("Objects") Set MyObject = SsObjs.Item("Fault") MyObject.Value("Label", 0) = "Défaut pompe 1" Actual result: -------------- Result of TEST 1 with () : Fatal error: Can't use method return value in write context in C:\wamp\www\Test COM\index.php on line 71 Result of TEST 2 with [] : Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'com_exception' with message 'Error [0x8002000e] Nombre de param?tres non valide. ' in C:\wamp\www\Test COM\index.php:69 Stack trace: #0 C:\wamp\www\Test COM\index.php(69): unknown() #1 {main} thrown in C:\wamp\www\Test COM\index.php on line 69 Depending on the way I write with [], I also have an "Unexpected ','" error. -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=44578&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.2): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44578&r=trysnapshot52 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.3): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44578&r=trysnapshot53 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 6.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44578&r=trysnapshot60 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44578&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44578&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44578&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44578&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44578&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44578&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44578&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44578&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44578&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44578&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44578&r=php4 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44578&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44578&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44578&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44578&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44578&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44578&r=mysqlcfg
