The above quote dereference involves an intermediate method, the one described in the example below uses an object which is currently supported. > > $foo = new foo(); > > $foo->bar->set_tmp("outside foo"); > > $foo->variable = "foo"; As far as references go... I believe when you copy an object it is a shallow copy, in otherwords, the object is copied, but not its members. This behaviour is preferrable as far as I'm concerned. If you want a deep copy try doing the following: $foo = new foo(); $fee = unserialize( serialize( $foo ) ); That should provide a nice quick, clean solution for what you want while not incurring the overhead most programmers would rather skip on every object copy.
