ID: 14794 User updated by: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reported By: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Old Summary: xml_set_object() should take object by-reference Status: Open Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Operating System: Linux 2.4 / Apache 1.3 PHP Version: 4.1.1 New Comment:
Ok, I am really embarassed now, because xml_set_object() does take object by reference. The warning message is misleading though. It convinced me that the parameter was passed by value. But rather, it should say '.. - argument passed according to the function spec', which, in this case, is by-reference. Thanks!

Thanks! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-01-02 02:19:32] [EMAIL PROTECTED] I am getting the following warning after I switched to 'php.ini-recommended': Warning: Call-time pass-by-reference has been deprecated - argument passed by value; If you would like to pass it by reference, modify the declaration of xml_set_object()... Apparently, xml_set_object() takes an object by value, which renders this functionality useless: The only way it's any good is when the object is passed by reference, so that the event-receiving object is the same instance that was passed as a parameter to xml_set_object() call. Otherwise, there is no way for a copied object to pass parsed data out to the caller of xml_set_object() (without global variables, of course). Please fix xml_set_object() to take an object by reference. Thanks. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=14794&edit=1 -- PHP Development Mailing List <http://www.php.net/> To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
