Re: PHP looses Resource-Id's

Hi, not a bug in php a bug in my brain. returning references from functions only works if you have & on function-declaration and call: $db1 = &itk_new_db(); $db1->connect(); $db2 = &itk_new_db(); and then it works, bye, Michael Bretterklieber schrieb:

Hi, I found a bug in php4.2.1 (Windows XP, IIS with php as CGI). - I have a db-class wich stores the resource-id of a db-connection. - I have a function (itk_new_db) where I return an object of the class above and I remember this object in a static-var. - the second call on that function (itk_new_db) returns the same object, but the resource-id is lost????!?!?!? This nice feature also exists with com-objects. This seems to be a cool bug in the resource-manager of php. Any hints? If not I make a bugreport. class db_class {

    var $dbc = null;

    function connect() {
        $this->dbc = mssql_connect('wincubix', 'oebb', 'oebb');
//     $this->dbc = mysql_connect('localhost:3308', 'root', '')
    }

} function &itk_new_db(){

    static $db;

    if (!isset($db)) $db = new db_class;

    return $db;

} $db1 = itk_new_db(); $db1->connect(); $db2 = itk_new_db(); if ($db1 === $db2) echo 'ident<br>'; echo 'S1'.$db1->dbc.'<br>' ; echo 'S2'.$db2->dbc.'<br>' ; bye,
