Description: ------------ Moving from 0.16.6 to 0.16.7 breaks BC in the singleton method Test script: --------------- $lu = Liveuser::singleton($conf) does not return an instance anymore I think you could do this by changing the method slightly: function &singleton(&$conf, $signature = null) { static $instances; if (!isset($instances)) { $instances = array(); } if (is_null($signature)) { if (empty($instances)) { $signature = uniqid(); //or some other default string } else { $signature = key($instances); } } elseif (!array_key_exists($signature, $instances)) { $instances[$signature] =& LiveUser::factory($conf); } return $instances[$signature]; } This would create a default signature and I think BC could be preserved this way. Expected result: ---------------- Liveuser object returned Actual result: -------------- returns false

This bug has been fixed in CVS. If this was a documentation problem, the fix will appear on pear.php.net by the end of next Sunday (CET). If this was a problem with the pear.php.net website, the change should be live shortly. Otherwise, the fix will appear in the package's next release. Thank you for the report and for helping us make PEAR better.
