Bug description:ForEach fails to add new key/value pairs
Description:
------------
using PHP Version 5.3.3, Build Date Jun 25 2012 04:51:11
In testing updating nested arrays, I'm finding the that the results of an
array
is not updated, since the variable used to point to that portion of the
array
seems to be a copy of the data and not a direct reference to the data.
Below is an array of arrays.
In the for loop, $sub points to $aryJunk's elements .. 0 .. 4
respectively.
When $sub has a new key value pair added, ex. "munch" => "junk", this value
only
exists as long as $sub exists in the for loop. Outside that loop, the key
value
pair are lost.
It is my understanding that this key value pair should not be lost. Or, at
least I cannot find an example that says definitively one way or the
other.
Please test to see if this issue still exists in the latest version of PHP,
and
determine the next steps to resolution.

Test script:
---------------
$aryJunk = Array
(
0 => array(),
1 => array(),
2 => array(),
3 => array(),
4 => array(),
);
// fails
foreach ($aryJunk AS $sub)
$sub ["munch"] = "junk";
print_r ($aryJunk);
// works
for ($t=0; $t < count ($aryJunk); $t++)
$aryJunk[$t] ["munch"] = "junk";
print_r ($aryJunk);
Expected result:
----------------
Array ( [0] => Array ( [munch] => junk ) [1] => Array ( [munch] => junk )
[2] =>
Array ( [munch] => junk ) [3] => Array ( [munch] => junk ) [4] => Array (
[munch]
=> junk ) )
Actual result:
--------------
Array ( [0] => Array ( ) [1] => Array ( ) [2] => Array ( ) [3] => Array ( )
[4] =>
Array ( ) )
