Hi All,
I think I'm looking for something that doesn't exist, but just in
case thought I'd check the list. Does anyone know if a PHP function
exists to get the number of references on a given variable's data? I was
hoping to create a way for a factory to automatically recycle resources
without the need for the developer to call some kind of free() method.
If I could get the internal reference count then I'd be able to
determine if it is free by virtue of only 1 reference (the factory).
This is for PHP4 btw, the solution is trivial in PHP5 using destructors.
Thanks in advance.
Rob.
