Operating system: Windows/Linux
PHP version: 5.1.5
PHP Bug Type: Scripting Engine problem
Bug description: References in function
Description:
------------
PHP 5.1.1 is the last version of PHP which gave expected result of this
statement. I noticed that next versions return wrong result.
I tested PHP version 5.1.2, 5.1.4, 5.1.6 and the all returned unexpected
(wrong) result.
As you can see, the mistake appeares when you assign value to the variable
which is passed to function as a reference:
In my example: test($i=array());
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?
function test(&$x)
{
$x[]=1;
$x[]=2;
$x[]=3;
}
test($i=array());
$i[]=4;
var_dump($i);
?>
Expected result:
----------------
array(4) {
[0]=>
int(1)
[1]=>
int(2)
[2]=>
int(3)
[3]=>
int(4)
}
Actual result:
--------------
array(1) {
[3]=>
int(4)
}
