#39254 [Opn->WFx]: Refcount error with static variables and object references (PHP4 only)

ID: 39254 Updated by: jani@php.net Reported By: benoit dot heinrich at swisscom dot com -Status: Open +Status: Wont fix Bug Type: Class/Object related Operating System: Linux PHP Version: 4.4.4 New Comment: We are sorry, but we can not support PHP 4 related problems anymore. Momentum is gathering for PHP 6, and we think supporting PHP 4 will lead to a waste of resources which we want to put into getting PHP 6 ready.

I'm still searching for a workaround but for now I have nothing. Cheers, /Benoit ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-10-25 14:11:12] benoit dot heinrich at swisscom dot com I'm sorry but I'm using php 4.4 and I can't use PHP 5 for a lot of reasons. Do you have any fix for php 4.4 ? Cheers, /Benoit ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
