Re: array_map in conjunction with user_call_func_array - inconsistency

so nobody has any idea? I checked the bug DB btw and couldn't find anything.... Jochem Maas wrote:

listers, I was playing around with call_user_func_array() and array_map() on PHP 5.0.2 (cli) (built: Nov 9 2004 19:00:36) and noticed the that calling call_user_func_array() on 'array_map' with more than 2 args (i.e. more than just the name of the callback and array argument that are required for 'array_map') then a numerically indexed array is returned, where as with just the minimum 2 args the associative keys of array are maintained: question is have I missed something, am I doing something wrong or it this a 'buglet'? =========================================================================== function array_map_assoc($callback, $arr) {

    /* return the fixed array */
    return $arr;

} // couldn't figure out how else // to use a single quote with php -r in a bash shell $sq = chr(39); // start array
