Must I clone the entire instance structure and performing a clone on every other referenced object and the collections ?? If yes ... What a shit !!! The _clone call should be aware of the other referenced objects inside an object, and do the clone as well. After all, why am I doing a clone, don't you think ?? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=51787&edit=1
