From: Operating system: Windows 7 and AmigaOS v3.1 PHP version: Irrelevant Package: Testing related Bug Type: Bug Bug description:Discrepency with var_dump
Description: ------------ Hello, I compiled PHP 4.2.3 for m68k-amigaos and the test case tests/lang/029.php fails. I tracked what could be a related bug: https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=7515. Could someone tell me more about what has been changed into the Zend engine to fix this earlier bug so that I can track this change and the bug? Or could someone explain me the meaning of the "&" in that particular case. Code to execute: class obj { function method() { } } $o->root=new obj(); var_dump($o); $o->root->method(); var_dump($o); and its output with PHP 4.2.3 compiled for m68k-amigaos: object(stdClass)(1) { ["root"]=> object(obj)(0) { } } object(stdClass)(1) { ["root"]=> &object(obj)(0) { } } (note the ampersand in the second dump), while, with PHP 5.2.14 on Windows 7, the output is: object(stdClass)#2 (1) { ["root"]=> object(obj)#1 (0) { } } object(stdClass)#2 (1) { ["root"]=> object(obj)#1 (0) { } } Does it make sense that in the second statement "$o->root->method();", the method is viewed as a reference to an object? Please forgive me if my question is silly, I am a newbie in OO PHP. Thanks, Tygre Test script: --------------- class obj { function method() { } } $o->root=new obj(); var_dump($o); $o->root->method(); var_dump($o); Expected result: ---------------- object(stdClass)#2 (1) { ["root"]=> object(obj)#1 (0) { } } object(stdClass)#2 (1) { ["root"]=> object(obj)#1 (0) { } } Actual result: -------------- object(stdClass)(1) { ["root"]=> object(obj)(0) { } } object(stdClass)(1) { ["root"]=> &object(obj)(0) { } } -- Edit bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=60376&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.4): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60376&r=trysnapshot54 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.3): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60376&r=trysnapshot53 Try a snapshot (trunk): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60376&r=trysnapshottrunk Fixed in SVN: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60376&r=fixed Fixed in SVN and need be documented: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60376&r=needdocs Fixed in release: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60376&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60376&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60376&r=needscript Try newer version: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60376&r=oldversion Not developer issue: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60376&r=support Expected behavior: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60376&r=notwrong Not enough info: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60376&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60376&r=submittedtwice register_globals: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60376&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60376&r=php4 Daylight Savings: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60376&r=dst IIS Stability: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60376&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60376&r=gnused Floating point limitations: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60376&r=float No Zend Extensions: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60376&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60376&r=mysqlcfg
