Pass By Ref Error

I'm getting this error on my PHP CLI script. If this feature is being
depreciated, then how are we to pass vars by reference???

Function parse_for_wind($php_line, &$php_total_wind_matches,
&$php_highest_wind)

[Wed Aug 24 16:22:08 2005] [error] PHP Warning: Call-time
pass-by-reference has been deprecated - argument passed by value; If
you would like to pass it by reference, modify the declaration of
parse_ceil_pattern().

re: Pass By Ref Error

>From the looks of your error the problem isn't in your declaration of
parse_for_wind but rather somewhere else where you call
parse_ceil_pattern().

I'm guessing that somewhere else in your code you have something like:

//some code
parse_ceil_pattern(&$arg1, &$arg2...);
//some more code

If you want parse_ceil_pattern to take it's arguments as references,
you need to change the function declaration -- much like you have for
parse_for_wind().

Thanks everyone - that was the answer; pass by reference using arrays.
