Operating system: Windows NT 4.0 SP 6
PHP Version: 4.0.6
Description: Getting values by reference don't work

It didn't work!
I get this:

Warning: Invoke() failed: Typ paßt nicht.
in D:\www\webze\application\index.php on line 10

translated: ...: Type mismatch.

Line 10 looks like this:
$instance->CheckLogin($user, COM_REMOTE_SERVER, $allowed);

I have tried all of the combinations I could think of,
VT_UI1|BYREF, VT_UI2|BYREF, VT_UI4|BYREF, VT_I1|BYREF,
VT_I2|BYREF, VT_I4|BYREF, VT_INT|BYREF, VT_UINT|BYREF
It doesn't matter. I get always the same type mismatch warning.

Note that the variable $allowed in the function of the
COM-Object is defined as "long".

Please help me to get this working.

$user = "test_user";
$allowed = new VARIANT(8, VT_I4|VT_BYREF);

$instance = new COM("dll.CObject") or die("Unable to
instanciate dll.CObject");
$instance->CheckLogin($user, COM_REMOTE_SERVER, $allowed);

echo $allowed->value;

/* you can use $allowed->type to check it against
 * VT_* constants
 * look into the php documentation for more flags
 * passing variables by reference is a deprecated
 * zend feature (i don't know why) and it didn't work
 * in every case in earlier versions.

Was submitted twice. Dup. of 11660

Example:

$user = "test_user";
$allowed = 8;

$instance = new COM("dll.CObject") or die("Unable to
instanciate dll.CObject");
$instance->CheckLogin($user, COM_REMOTE_SERVER, &$allowed);

echo $allowed;

$allowed has always the value that you have specified
above, here: 8; When I change $allowed to 6788, then
I get 6788. It seems that the variable won't be changed
when you pass it by reference.
It doesn't matter if i use the & sign or not!
Note that the variable $allowed have to be integer,
I can't pass a variant type to the COM-Function CheckLogin.

The same has been working with previous versions of PHP,
until 4.0.5 and above.

In need this functionality because i use a lot of stuff
like that: 

$instance->some_function(&$var1, &$var2, &$var3);

any clue, what's going up?
