Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-09-22 23:41:50] james at processit dot biz Description: ------------ In a function inside a class, I can only set array elements through the $xyz = array("key"=>"val") syntax. If I attempt to set with $xyz['key'] = 'val', the whole array is replaced with 'val' and it just becomes a normal variable, not an array. Reproduce code: --------------- <?php class Test { public $array; function arraytester() { $this->$array = array("key1"=>"val1", "key2"=>"val2"); print_r($this->$array); $this->$array['key1'] = 'val3'; print_r($this->$array); } } $class = new Test; $class->arraytester(); ?> Expected result: ---------------- Array ( [key1] => val1 [key2] => val2 ) Array ( [key1] => val3 [key2] => val2 ) Actual result: -------------- Array ( [key1] => val1 [key2] => val2 ) val3 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=30202&edit=1
