Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2016-08-11 13:10:54] smilimko at gmail dot com Description: ------------ I use PHP 7.0.4 When I run the script represented below I get the different result for versions 5.6.* and 7.0. If it is not a bug I would want to know what changes were made in PHP that may cause that different behavior. Test script: --------------- class Test { private $props = ['a' => 'text', 'b' => 1]; public function &__get($prop) { return $this->props[$prop]; } public function __set($prop, $value) { if ($prop === 'b') $value = [$value]; $this->props[$prop] = $value; } public function getProperties() { return [$this->props]; } } $obj = new Test; $obj->b = $obj->b; print_r($obj->getProperties()); Expected result: ---------------- Array ( [0] => Array ( [a] => text [b] => Array ( [0] => 1 ) ) ) Actual result: -------------- Array ( [0] => Array ( [a] => text [b] => Array *RECURSION* ) ) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=72813&edit=1
