It's in the manual.

PHP4
$obj = new SomeObject() would create a SomeObject, and assign it by
value to $obj. $obj would be a copy of the one created. by the new
SomeObject. & makes it assign by reference.

PHP5
In PHP5 Objects are assigned by reference anyway so the & doesn't matter.

Now I understand. Many thanks!

Dear all,

Usually, I develop on Perl. But my current task pushes me to start use
PHP. Generally, it's great but sometimes I'm a little bit confused.
For example, recently I've found a strange notation of creation of PHP
objects:

$obj = & new SomeObject();

Can anyone explain me meaning of *&*?

Thanks in advanced
