Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2011-02-05 03:39:54] cataphract@php.net Can you give an example with which to reproduce this? This really looks like a bug on your part, namely failing to adapt get_property_ptr_ptr. See http://wiki.php.net/internals/engine/objects#get_property_ptr_ptr ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2011-02-04 22:06:12] mark dot rhoads at rightnow dot com Description: ------------ I have a custom object implementation with its own read_property and write_property handlers where some properties are also objects. Attemptying to write a property within the nested object when the nested object has not been previously accessed via read_property will cause a stdClass object to be invented and assigned to the property instead of calling read_property to get the underlying object. If the the first access is a write to a property of a nested object, then read_property is not called for the nested object and a stdClass object is invented and assigned: $obj->nestedObject->someProperty = someValue; assert( 'stdClass' == get_class( $obj->nestedObject ) ); However, if the first access is a read then it all works fine: $someValue = $obj->nestedObject->someProperty; // read_property is called for nestedObject $obj->nestedObject->someProperty = someValue; // and now the write works First performing any kind of read access allows this to work just fine. E.g. this works $obj->nestedObject; $obj->nestedObject->someProperty = someValue; Or this: $avalue = $obj->nestedObject->someProperty; // calls read_property on nestedObject $obj->nestedObject->someProperty = someValue; The problem only occurs when the very first access is a write to a properpty of the nested property. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=53931&edit=1
