Note Submitter: nikoolin at ukr dot net ---- Remark for "Arrays are shallow cloned on assignment, so don't use the clone keyword on them, just assign it to a new variable. That would lead to an error instead." Following code works well: $c = [1,2,3]; $d = [4,5,6]; $a = new StdClass(); $a->arr = $c; $b = clone $a; $a->arr = $d; var_dump($b); var_dump($a); Retursn: object(stdClass)#2 (1) { ["arr"]=> array(3) { [0]=> int(1) [1]=> int(2) [2]=> int(3) } } object(stdClass)#1 (1) { ["arr"]=> array(3) { [0]=> int(4) [1]=> int(5) [2]=> int(6) } }
