return reference trouble with PHP 4.4

[asleo]

I know in this forum this issue is explained yet (http://www.directadmin.com/forum/showthread.php?s=&threadid=10287), but I'd not find a good trip for resolve it.
In some case I'd hack my code from

return new function_name()

to

$tmp = new function_name();
return $tmp;

but in other case this is not possible. I think latest CVS will fix the problem (http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=33558&edit=1) but I know also it is not possible installing CVS on DA.

Any suggestion?
Thank you

anything is possible, but installing a php snapshot maybe a lot easier then installing cvs version.

Thank you for reply, Chrysalis.
I'm afraid, but I'm too newbie on the server issues for completly understand your word. My admin say me it is not possible installing cvs on DA becouse DA is a "closing system". Now, you say it's possible but is better install a php snapshot. Right, I will follow you
I've root access on the server via SSH, too, but I'm not able to do what you say. May you help me with explanion of your mind or with a link to a page where I can study this problem?

Thank you so much

cvs is possible but would be messy to integrate with DA, you better to wait for the change to be in a snapshot which shouldnt be too long and defenitly before a release then you can use that with ease, just enter the new version in the build file.
