Hi.
I'm doing the 5.3-strict thing, and am removing all my
passing-by-reference muck from a script of mine.
But i've run into a problem;
I use the following construct to push new values fairly deeply inside
an array structure;
$chase = chaseToReference ($wm, $path);
$arr = result($chase);
$arr[$v] = $lid;
$path is a flat-list array of indexes in $wm that have to be traversed
to get to the right portion of $wm.
a debug-dump of $wm and $arr after running this code shows $arr
correctly updated, but $wm not. :((
here are the functions involved, any help is much appreciated.
function chaseToReference (&$array, $path) {
if (!empty($path)) {
if (empty($array[$path[0]])) {
return badResult (E_USER_WARNING, array(
'msg' => 'Could not walk the full tree',
'$path' => $path,
'$array (possibly partially walked)' => $array
));
} else return chaseToReference($array[$path[0]], array_slice($path, 1));
} else {
return goodResult($array);
}
}
function result(&$r) {
return $r['result'];
}
function goodResult(&$r) {
$r2 = array (
'isMetaForFunc' => true,
'result' => &$r
);
return $r2;
}
