note 60477 added to function.pdo-construct

On Windows the sample code doesn't necessarily work. If you use <?php $db = new PDO("sqlite::memory:"); ?> you can get a 'No Error: Constructor not called' warning whenever you try any methods of the $db object. This is due to the fact that the PDO Object shouldn't be cloned (but still is cloneable). Using the following syntax resolves the problem: <?php $db =& new PDO("sqlite::memory:"); ?> (Essentially, this assigns a reference of the newly created object to $db, not a copy; this way, the $db object isn't cloned) ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.pdo-construct.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+60477 Delete: added to the manual -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+60477&report=yes&reason=added+to+the+manual Delete: bad code -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+60477&report=yes&reason=bad+code Delete: spam -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+60477&report=yes&reason=spam Delete: useless -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+60477&report=yes&reason=useless Delete: non-english -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+60477&report=yes&reason=non-english Delete: already in docs -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+60477&report=yes&reason=already+in+docs Delete: other reasons -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+60477&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+60477&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
