From: hueen at yahoo dot com Operating system: osx PHP version: 5.2.10 PHP Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Bug description: foreach by reference behavior Description: ------------ In regards to bug #29992 Does anything speak against having foreach() unset the "as" variable before iterating? I can hardly imagine anyone would want it to remain a reference when walking through an array. -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=49334&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.2): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49334&r=trysnapshot52 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.3): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49334&r=trysnapshot53 Try a snapshot (PHP 6.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49334&r=trysnapshot60 Fixed in SVN: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49334&r=fixed Fixed in SVN and need be documented: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49334&r=needdocs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49334&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49334&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49334&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49334&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49334&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49334&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49334&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49334&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49334&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49334&r=php4 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49334&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49334&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49334&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49334&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49334&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49334&r=mysqlcfg
