From: tomas_matousek at hotmail dot com Operating system: WinXP PHP version: 5.0.0RC3 PHP Bug Type: Scripting Engine problem Bug description: Operator = doesn't copy $GLOBALS array
Description: ------------ When the operator = is used on user created array on RHS this array will be copied to LHS. But if $GLOBALS variable is used on RHS a copy is not made. It seems like it behaves as =& when used on $GLOBALS which is IMHO not correct. Reproduce code: --------------- $x = 1; $a = $GLOBALS; $a["x"] = 2; echo $x; Expected result: ---------------- 1 Actual result: -------------- 2 -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=28832&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (php4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=28832&r=trysnapshot4 Try a CVS snapshot (php5): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=28832&r=trysnapshot5 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=28832&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=28832&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=28832&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=28832&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=28832&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=28832&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=28832&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=28832&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=28832&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=28832&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=28832&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=28832&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=28832&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=28832&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=28832&r=float
