Description:
------------
I am using PHP 5.1.2 on Apache 2.0. In my PHP code I am trying to set a COM OLE poprerty:

$simcase->ObjectValue($inobj1, $inpropname1,"",$inunits1)=$inval1;

($simcase is a COM object)

Using:

echo $simcase->ObjectValue($inobj1, $inpropname1,"",$inunits1);

works fine.

Expected result:
----------------
I expected the method to execute and set the property without any problem. According to the type library what I have written is perfectly legal and works with VBScript etc.

   HRESULT ObjectValue([in] IDispatch* object, [in] BSTR variable, [in,optional] BSTR subVariable, [in,optional] BSTR units, [out, retval] double* value);
   [helpstring("Sets"),propput,helpcontext(NO_HELP_PANEL)]

   HRESULT ObjectValue([in] IDispatch* object, [in] BSTR variable, [in,optional] BSTR subVariable, [in,optional] BSTR units, [in] double value);
   [helpstring("Gets"),propget,helpcontext(NO_HELP_PANEL)]



Actual result:
--------------
Fatal error: Can't use method return value in write context...

With com_set being gone, I cant find any work around. I also found a comment somewhere saying "we cant support ()= so we have "[]=".

But what do you do if your property also takes arguments?
