--TEST--
Test array_shift() function : usage variations - maintaining referenced elements
--FILE--
<?php
/* Prototype : mixed array_shift(array &$stack)
* Description: Pops an element off the beginning of the array
* Source code: ext/standard/array.c
*/
/*
* From a comment left by Traps on 09-Jul-2007 on the array_shift documentation page:
* For those that may be trying to use array_shift() with an array containing references
* (e.g. working with linked node trees), beware that array_shift() may not work as you expect:
* it will return a *copy* of the first element of the array,
* and not the element itself, so your reference will be lost.
* The solution is to reference the first element before removing it with array_shift():
*/
echo "*** Testing array_shift() : usage variations ***\n";
// using only array_shift:
echo "\n-- Reference result of array_shift: --\n";
$a = 1;
$array = array(&$a);
$b =& array_shift($array);
$b = 2;
echo "a = $a, b = $b\n";
// solution: referencing the first element first:
echo "\n-- Reference first element before array_shift: --\n";
$a = 1;
$array = array(&$a);
$b =& $array[0];
array_shift($array);
$b = 2;
echo "a = $a, b = $b\n";
echo "Done";

--EXPECTF--
*** Testing array_shift() : usage variations ***
-- Reference result of array_shift: --
Notice: Only variables should be assigned by reference in %s on line %d
a = 1, b = 2
-- Reference first element before array_shift: --
a = 2, b = 2
Done
