Re: [Phrame-devel] PHP OO questions

[Arnold C. <arn...@ya...>]

The current version of Phrame does not utilize
reference passing as it should.

Passing by reference:

...
function passObject(&$object) (
    $this->object = $object;
)
...

Returning by reference:

...
function &returnObject() (
    return $this->object;
)
...

If you have any more questions on references let me
know.

My development version of Phrame does utilize
references throughout.  Speaking of the development
version, I haven't had much time this week to get it
cleaned up to add to the sourceforge cvs.  I will
hopefully get it ready some time next week.
