Bug description: mysqli_stmt_bind_param saying parameter 3 is value not a
reference
Description:
I tested this on both linux/windows with PHP 5.2.10 and it gave no
problems. After updating the windows machine to PHP 5.3.0 it now gives the
error.
Warning: Parameter 3 to mysqli_stmt_bind_param() expected to be a
reference, value given
Reproduce code:
---
result = $result;
}
}
$uid = NEW db();
$uid->getresult("SELECT uid FROM testtable WHERE user = ?","Chris");
echo $uid->result;
?>
Expected result:
It should echo the uid of the user.
Actual result:
--
Warning: Parameter 3 to mysqli_stmt_bind_param() expected to be a
reference, value given in D:\www\mysqli2.php on line 16

New Comment:
Does this mean 5.3.0 is correct in giving the error and 5.2.10 was
wrong in letting it work?

Sounds like Bogus
http://de3.php.net/manual/en/function.call-user-func-array.php
-> Note: Referenced variables in param_arr are passed to the function
by a reference, others are passed by a value. In other words, it does
not depend on the function signature whether the parameter is passed by
a value or by a reference.
call_user_func_array does call by value and mysqli_stmt_bind_param() is
documented to expect variables passed by reference.

bool mysqli_stmt::bind_param ( string $types , mixed &$var1 [, mixed
&$... ] )
