From: hongnk at hotmail dot com Operating system: All PHP version: Irrelevant PHP Bug Type: Scripting Engine problem Bug description: Assignment by reference suppress index error
Description: ------------ Accessing array with uninitialized index will normally trigger error: $a=array(); $b=$a['unknown']; => undefined index error but if I assign by reference: $b=&$a['unknown']; then PHP no longer throw error. (The same goes for assigning undefined property to an object.) This makes it difficult to debug scripts. -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=25996&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (php4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=25996&r=trysnapshot4 Try a CVS snapshot (php5): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=25996&r=trysnapshot5 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=25996&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=25996&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=25996&r=needtrace Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=25996&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=25996&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=25996&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=25996&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=25996&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=25996&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=25996&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=25996&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=25996&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=25996&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=25996&r=float
