Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=47955&edit=1 ID: 47955 Updated by: nikic@php.net Reported by: richardcook at gmail dot com Summary: ReflectionClass::newInstanceArgs() fails with references -Status: Open +Status: Not a bug Type: Bug Package: Reflection related Operating System: * PHP Version: 5.*, 6CVS (2009-05-14) Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: The current behavior here is correct and intended. As mentioned, you need to use references in the array to allow this to work in any reasonable fashion. Since PHP 7.1 the call will be performed despite the reference warnings, though this may be tightened again in the future.
