ID: 62455 Comment by: madsorcerer at gmail dot com Reported by: scout4u at ya dot ru Summary: last chance to work with __call by reference died after removing call-time-& Status: Wont fix Type: Feature/Change Request Package: *General Issues PHP Version: 5.4.4 Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: I found, that it is possible to use $sm->test(array('data'=>&$data)); Not so good solution but still... Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2012-07-09 06:46:23] scout4u at ya dot ru You offer to work in artifishial maner and not in way: $sm->letsGo($args); Now we have decided to use construction: $sm->need( 'funcName' ); sm_funcName( arg1,arg2 ); instead of $sm->funcName( arg1,arg2 ); Alas I see nobody would revert references (by some mysterious reson). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2012-07-08 21:36:51] cataphr...@php.net A full example: <?php class A { function __call($func, $args) { $args[0] = 3; } } $a = new A; call_user_func_array([$a, 'foo'], [&$a]); var_dump($a); //int(3) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2012-07-08 21:29:07] cataphr...@php.net Please see the documentation of call_user_func_array(). Unsurprisingly, it takes its arguments as an array. So you would have: call_user_func_array(array($this,$n), array(&$val)) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2012-07-02 14:55:57] scout4u at ya dot ru «You can still pass by reference to __call using call_user_func_array().» When I try to launch: call_user_func_array(array($this,$n), &$val); I have: Call-time pass-by-reference has been removed in When I try to launch: function __call($n, &$val) I have: Method smTest::__call() cannot take arguments by reference What do you mean by «refs are available for call_user_func_array()»? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2012-07-02 14:29:44] scout4u at ya dot ru Dear catagraph, Sorry I can't catch you. What do you mean? Do you mean that we can work in maner I have submited before? But we can't. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
