## #5602 — Sebastian Bergmann — 2003-11-20T06:52:07+00:00

I am wondering what should happen to the

    allow_call_time_pass_reference

  php.ini directive.

  The following code, for instance, prints no warning with PHP 5 but with
  PHP 4.

   <?php
   error_reporting(E_ALL);

   class Foo {
     function bar($foobar) {}
   }

   $a = new Foo;
   $b = new Foo;

   $a->bar(&$b);
   ?>

  I think the allow_call_time_pass_reference directive should be
  removed as it is no longer needed.
