Bug Type: Arrays related
Operating System: Linux 2.6.17.7
PHP Version: 5.2.1
New Comment:
Agree, this is expresion, but the expression is executed before
function is called, right? So the variable should be defined *before*
function takes variable as a parameter. Then why it works in PHP 4.x?

"$user = array()" is not a variable, but an expression.

Description:
------------
Array values are destroyed after using it as reference in function call
defining in call dirrectly as array. If given array is constructed
before function call in the same parameters line, PHP returns nothing,
but really shoud return a value associated to array.
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
// this is our defined function
// as you can see the second parameter is reference
function someFunc($param1, & $array) {
// so expecting $array as array we
// put some value in it
$array[0] = 'some value';
}
// now call the function, please note, that array $user
// is created as array type *outside* function
someFunc(null, $user = array());
// now let's check returned value
print_r($user);
?>
Expected result:
----------------
Array
(
[0] => some value
)
Actual result:
--------------
Array
(
)
