Please do not submit the same bug more than once. An existing bug report already describes this very problem. Even if you feel that your issue is somewhat different, the resolution is likely to be the same. Thank you for your interest in PHP. This has been requested multiple times before, till now nobody came up with a working solution.

Reproduce code: --------------- function test() { return array('dog','cat'); } echo test()[0]; // produces a syntax error. of course this works fine class temp{} function test() { $o = new $temp; $temp->foo = 'dog'; } echo test()->foo; // works Expected result: ---------------- dog ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=41993&edit=1
