[TYPO3-dam-devel] RFC: #11623: Remove deprecated assignments by reference when using "new" statement

[Andreas Wolf]

This is an SVN patch request.

Type: Code cleanup

Extension: dam, but all other might be affected, too

Bugtracker references: http://bugs.typo3.org/view.php?id=11623

Branches: dam_1-1 / trunk

Problem:

With PHP 5, using =& when assigning the return value of the new
statement is deprecated - objects are always assigned by reference in
PHP 5. As PHP 5.3 also introduced a new error level, E_DEPRECATED, error
messages are thrown when using deprecated functions or statements.

To make matters worse, TYPO3 overrides the setting for error_reporting,
so even if you configure your PHP 5.3 to not show these errors, they are
still displayed within TYPO3.


Solution:

The quick and easy solution is to replace all =& used with new by a
simple =.


Regards

Andreas
