Description:
------------
When using array_multisort in a funciton, and the array is set to
"global", array_multisort fails to sort the array.
Reproduce code:
---------------
function does_work() {
$data = array('first', 'fifth', 'second', 'forth',
'third');
$sort = array(1, 5, 2, 4, 3);
array_multisort($sort, $data);
print_r($data);
}
function does_not_work() {
global $data;
$data = array('first', 'fifth', 'second', 'forth',
'third');
$sort = array(1, 5, 2, 4, 3);
array_multisort($sort, $data);
print_r($data);
}
echo "function does_work():\n";
does_work();
echo "\n\nfunction does_not_work():\n";
does_not_work();
Expected result:
----------------
function does_work():
Array
(
[0] => first
[1] => second
[2] => third
[3] => forth
[4] => fifth
)
function does_not_work():
Array
(
[0] => first
[1] => second
[2] => third
[3] => forth
[4] => fifth
)
Actual result:
--------------
function does_work():
Array
(
[0] => first
[1] => second
[2] => third
[3] => forth
[4] => fifth
)
function does_not_work():
Array
(
[0] => first
[1] => fifth
[2] => second
[3] => forth
[4] => third
)
