Re: small patch to DB/common.php

Sounds a bit like a bug in PHP5. - have a try on zend-engine2 mailing list.. see if there was a definitive direction on this.. Regards Alan Brad Bulger wrote:

php 5 does not allow 'return new FooClass;' from a method declared as returning a reference ('function &getMyFoo()'). DB does this in a couple places. The patch just changes it to do $dbr =& new Whatever; return $dbr;
