ID: 25815 Updated by: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reported By: dan at wep dot net -Status: Open +Status: Bogus Bug Type: Class/Object related Operating System: Linux (Redhat 9, 2.4.22) PHP Version: 5CVS-2003-10-09 (dev) New Comment:
Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php That's correct. We have three types of object bound properties: 1) declared with or without default value 2) implicit declared by usage in source (for BC reasons) 3) virtual through __get() and __set() Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-10-09 21:33:33] dan at wep dot net Description: ------------ When a class definition contains any reference to a variable name that will be later used in a __set() (or __get()) operation, the setter (or getter) will not fire. This variable does not have to be defined or used at all. The code must simply exist. In the following example code, simply comment out the print($this->myVar); line and you will see the 'setter fired' message. This is NOT similar to bug #24608 as the element never gets created in this case. Reproduce code: --------------- class test { function unusedFunction() { print($this->myVar); } function __set($nm, $vl) { print('setter fired'); } } $obj = new test(); $obj->myVar = 'some data'; Expected result: ---------------- 'setter fired' Actual result: -------------- Nothing. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=25815&edit=1
