Re: serialize bug with array that references to itself?

Well, when there is traversion inside the engine, it checks whether it has processed a "node" already several times. As far as I remember the threshold is 3. So once it goes over $Arr, the counter increases to 1, the second time to 2 and third time it is 3 and ZE reports recursion. HTH, Andrey Francisco M. Marzoa Alonso wrote:

BTW., I'm not sure that there's nothing more wrong here. Takin the first part of the code of first example: <?php $Arr = array(); $Arr['self'] = &$Arr; var_dump ( $Arr ); ?> It returns: array(1) { ["self"]=> array(1) { ["self"]=> *RECURSION* } } Is that as its expected to be? I meant that perhaps it should be: array(1) { ["self"]=> *RECURSION* } Since the element in $Arr['self'] is yet (or at least should be) a reference to itself...
