Bug Type: Scripting Engine problem
Operating System: Windows XP
PHP Version: 4.2.1
New Comment:
in RedHat php-4.2.2 i have noticed thisproblem (is it fixed in some
newer version of PHP?):
======PHP CODE STARTS=========
<?php
class test {
var $nr = 0;
var $sub1 = null;
function test() {
$this->sub1 =& new sub(&$this);
$this->nr++;
}
}
class sub {
var $parent = null;
function sub($pObj) {
$this->parent = &$pObj;
}
}
$mytest =& new test();
print_r($mytest);
?>
======PHP CODE ENDS=========
and outout is following:
test Object
(
[nr] => 1
[sub1] => sub Object
(
[parent] => test Object
(
[nr] => 1
[sub1] => *RECURSION*
)
)
)
but the problem is: the *RECURSION* must allready be in [parent]
because the [parent] is a pointer/reference to parent object...
am i right or wrong ?
in more complicated solutions where are more objects that use
references to their parents, print_r() can not handle the recursion
well and results in an infinite loop...

You don't have to report the same bug report.
We know it, it's just nobody care to fix it.

There is a note in the documentation that since PHP 4.0.4 infinite loop
situations like print_r($GLOBALS) are handled and get stopped. But
there are still situations print_r() results in an infinite loop:
foreach($GLOBALS as $i)
{
print_r($GLOBALS);
}
