Subject: PHP 5.2-dev "Cannot use array returned from foo::__get('bar') in
 write context"
From: christian.stocker@bitflux.ch (Christian Stocker)

Just updated to the latest PHP 5.2-dev from CVS and now I get an Fatal 
error with the following code
***
<?php

class foo {
     public function __get($member) {
         return array("foo"=>"bar","bar"=>"foo");
     }
}

$f = new foo();

//error
foreach($f->bar as $key => $value) {
     print "$key => $value";
}

?>
***

It throws a

"Fatal error: Cannot use array returned from foo::__get('bar') in write 
context"

on the foreach line. Quite annoying :)


That worked fine with 5.1 and also with 5.2-dev from a few days/weeks 
ago (don't know, when I cvs-uped last time, but can't be that long)

Is that expected/wished behaviour?

chregu
