Sorry, but your problem does not imply a bug in PHP itself. For a list of more appropriate places to ask for help using PHP, please visit http://www.php.net/support.php as this bug system is not the appropriate forum for asking support questions. Due to the volume of reports we can not explain in detail here why your report is not a bug. The support channels will be able to provide an explanation for you. Thank you for your interest in PHP. http://php.net/references Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-02-19 02:50:39] epoc_32 at yahoo dot co dot ukXXX Description: ------------ If you create an array inside array_pop(), expecting that array to be popped then it isn't even though the last element of that array is returned as expected. Creating the array on the previous line makes array_pop() behave as expected. This behaviour doesn't occur in PHP4.3.x on FreeBSD. I only noticed it when I upgraded to PHP 5.1.2 on my home WinXP machine though it's possible it was broken but I didn't notice it in 5.0.x Reproduce code: --------------- $a=array(0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5); // Set array first. $offcut=array_pop($a); // Then pop array. $length=count($a); echo "<pre>Array offcut: " .$offcut."\nArray length: " .$length."\nLast element: " .$a[$length-1]."</pre>\n"; $offcut=array_pop($a=array(0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5)); // Set and pop at the same time. $length=count($a); echo "<pre>Array offcut: " .$offcut."\nArray length: " .$length."\nLast element: " .$a[$length-1]."</pre>\n"; Expected result: ---------------- Array offcut: 5 Array length: 5 Last element: 4 Array offcut: 5 Array length: 5 Last element: 4 Actual result: -------------- Array offcut: 5 Array length: 5 Last element: 4 Array offcut: 5 Array length: 6 Last element: 5 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=36451&edit=1
