#34541 [Opn->Fbk]: =&new crashes the parser

ID: 34541 Updated by: tony2001@php.net Reported By: drbob2 at tomjepp dot co dot uk -Status: Open +Status: Feedback Bug Type: Reproducible crash Operating System: Windows XP SP2 PHP Version: 5.0.5 New Comment: Thank you for this bug report. To properly diagnose the problem, we need a short but complete example script to be able to reproduce this bug ourselves. A proper reproducing script starts with <?php and ends with ?>, is max. 10-20 lines long and does not require any external resources such as databases, etc. If possible, make the script source available online and provide an URL to it here. Try to avoid embedding huge scripts into the report.

If, however, you remove the "&" from the "=&new", it works fine. (Yes, I know that sort of coding is deprecated; I was converting code to PHP5 when the error appeared.) (PHP5 CLI Apache2) Reproduce code: --------------- $this->trackbacks_handler=&new trackback_handler(&$db_connection,&$login_connection,&$mail_connection,'blog'); Expected result: ---------------- My blog. Actual result: -------------- A Firefox (or IE, or any other browser) connection reset error page. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=34541&edit=1
