PHP Bug Type: Variables related
Bug description: Reference is assigned locally
Description:
------------
The script should output '1', but it outputs '0'.
Looks like the assignment is made locally.
But if I replace '$a =& $b' with '$GLOBALS['a'] =& $b'
the script will output '1' (right behaviour)
Reproduce code:
---------------
$b=1;
$a=0;
function f()
{
global $a,$b;
$a =& $b;
}
f();
echo $a;
Expected result:
----------------
1
Actual result:
--------------
0
