#37744 [NEW]: unseting an index on ArrayObject may modify the original array

From: eric dot daspet at survol dot net Operating system: MS Windows XP PHP version: 5.1.4 PHP Bug Type: SPL related Bug description: unseting an index on ArrayObject may modify the original array Description: ------------ Deleting an index in ArrayObjet also delete it from the original array *if and only if* ArrayObject was not modified. This may introduce bugs (unexpected deletion in the original array). Note: if modification of the original array is wanted behaviour, then we have the opposite bugs : - documentation does not says that the array in ArrayObject constructor is passed as reference - I we modify the value of some entry in ArrayObject, the the relation between ArrayObject and the original array is lost Reproduce code: --------------- <?php $array = array('foo' => 'bar') ; $object = new ArrayObject( $array ) ; // uncomment this for opposite behaviour // and loose the reference between $object and $array // $objet['foo'] = 'hello' ; unset($objet['foo']); var_dump( $array ) ; Expected result: ---------------- array(1) { ["foo"]=> string(3) "bar" } Actual result: -------------- array(0) { } -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=37744&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 4.4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37744&r=trysnapshot44 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.2): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37744&r=trysnapshot52 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 6.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37744&r=trysnapshot60 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37744&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37744&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37744&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37744&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37744&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37744&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37744&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37744&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37744&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37744&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37744&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37744&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37744&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37744&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37744&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37744&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37744&r=mysqlcfg
