ID: 27376 User updated by: rxk at gmx dot de Reported By: rxk at gmx dot de Status: Bogus Bug Type: Arrays related Operating System: win2000/Linux PHP Version: 4.3.4 New Comment: I don't think this example ist pretty. But this ist a Problem for me. The class phpxpath (http://sourceforge.net/projects/phpxpath/) use recursive arrays. I will to use the class in a shell-script-daemon but with thge "bug" is this not possibly! Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-02-24 08:40:17] derick@php.net Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php Infinite recursion like this is always leaking. Don\'t you think your example is pretty dumb anyway? :) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-02-24 08:03:41] rxk at gmx dot de Description: ------------ unset don't free the memory. Reproduce code: --------------- <?php set_time_limit(0); $a=array(); for($j=0;$j<5;$j++) { for($i=0;$i<20000;$i++) { $a[$i] = array(1,2,3,4,5); $a[$i][] = &$a[$i]; } echo "before unset\n";sleep(5); unset($a); echo "after unset\n";sleep(5); } ?> Actual result: -------------- There is none differentiated before or after unset. The memory overflows. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=27376&edit=1
