RE: [PHP-DEV] 4.0.4

The 1st option is not acceptable, because it makes it impossible to send new objects to functions, e.g.: foo(new bar(...)); or otherwise using them in expressions. The 2nd option looks OK - we need to look into it. Thanks, Zeev At 23:57 02/11/2000, Daniel J. Rodriguez wrote:

Hi Zeev: All the work that has to be done is inside one of the patches I am attaching.

    Alternative a:
        Have "new" support "&" to return a reference.

    Alternative b:
        Have "new" always return a reference.

Both patches are simple enough to be applied by hand. Regards Daniel ----- Original Message ----- From: Zeev Suraski <zeev@zend.com> To: Daniel J.

It has been submitted as a bug in "6259, 6896, 7444, 7454, 7455, 7482" (as far as I am aware of) and as a feature/request change in 7598. I myself did 7482 and 7598 providing a patch in 7482 for zend-parser.y and an insight into the problem for 7598 when feedback has been requested by "waldschrott". The principal answer has been: "this is a circular reference problem" which it is not. Please consider this issue before moving into PHP 4.0.4.

I don't quite remember which OO issue you're talking about. There

is one

issue which involves references within nested structures being duplicated as-is. Can you please refresh my memory?

subject was: "serious bug, please read" bug id #7515 if you think of nested structures as objects containing objects, ok. you´re fine - it had to do with references too, after my last post I

got

no answer, thought your brains are to busy to answer :) andré -- PHP Development Mailing List <http://www.php.net/> To unsubscribe, e-mail: php-dev-unsubscribe@lists.php.net For additional commands, e-mail: php-dev-help@lists.php.net To contact the list administrators, e-mail:
