I can't understand why this works like it does.
class MyObj {
var $Name;
function MyObj($Name) {
$this->Name = $Name;
}
}
$a = new MyObj('MyObjName');
$b = $a;
$b->Name = 'NoName';
echo $a->Name;
Last line will output 'MyObjName' instead of 'NoName' (like I was expecting)
I'd expect $a and $b to behave like reference pointers (change in $b is
reflected in $a and vice versa) instead of copiing $a to $b (beiing a Delphi
programmer this is as natural to me as the Sun raising in east and setting
in west :-)
So, is there a way to do this; pointers or something maybe?
