"Fixed" in PHP 5 (where you don't even need to play around with references..) Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-12-09 06:57:51] [EMAIL PROTECTED] This shouldn't really part of the scripting engine bugs but addressed to the authors of serialize() and unserialize(). Re-classifying. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-11-27 09:32:28] alex_boyer at hotmail dot com i thought that PHP count references on data before destroys it. This is not the case. This is why $GLOBALS['ref'] is null isn't it ? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-11-27 09:22:51] alex_boyer at hotmail dot com I try to keep reference on all instances of a class. Even, unserialized one. <?php class A { var $x=1; function __wakeup(){ $GLOBALS['ref'] =& $this; } } function set(){ //Serialize information $a =& new A(); $a->x=2; $data = serialize($a); //Unserialize $b =& unserialize($data); // i try without '&' $result= $b === $GLOBALS['ref']; // $result == true; echo "VALUE IN SET: {$b->x} \n"; // Echo 2 } set(); echo "VALUE OUT SET: {$GLOBALS['ref']->x}\n"; //echo nothing, $GLOBALS['ref'] is now NULL ! ?> I have read all docs, my eyes burns me but i really cannot understand. I look in database too. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=20676&edit=1
