Bug #52244 [Opn->Bgs]: array_walk 3rd parameter not modifying by-reference

Edit report at http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=52244&edit=1 ID: 52244 Updated by: johannes@php.net Reported by: davidcanos at gmail dot com Summary: array_walk 3rd parameter not modifying by-reference -Status: Open +Status: Bogus Type: Bug Package: Arrays related Operating System: Windows PHP Version: 5.3.2 New Comment: For doing this we'd have to implement array_walk not as a function but as some other form of language construct which won't happen. If you need to change that value you can either wrap it in a class or use a 5.3 closure as callback. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-07-04 13:11:38] davidcanos at gmail dot com Description: ------------ third parameters of array_walk function is not changing unless I used the deprecated syntax of call-by-reference Deprecated message is shown and its working properly that way. Test script: --------------- $cont = 0; $sampleArray = array(0,1,1,2,3,5,8,13); $foo = function($item,$key,$aux){ $aux++; }; array_walk($sampleArray,$foo,$cont); echo $cont; // it's ok. cont = 0, no call-by-reference echo "<hr>"; $cont = 0; $foo = function($item,$key,&$aux){ $aux++; }; array_walk($sampleArray,$foo,$cont); echo $cont; // it should be same as count($sampleArray) but it is 0 BUG! echo "<hr>"; $cont = 0; $foo = function($item,$key,&$aux){ $aux++; }; array_walk($sampleArray,$foo,&$cont); echo $cont; // it is 8, perfect but Deprecated: Call-time pass-by-reference has been deprecated Expected result: ---------------- 0,8,8 should by right but 0,0,8 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=52244&edit=1
