(is it a bug or an improvement?)

I create
class test {
	var $value;
	function test() {
		$this->value = 2;
}	}
$myTest = new test();
And then, if I try to access to $GLOBALS["myTest->value"], i get an empty string.
and I would like to get $myTest->value...
To fix it, i have to ereg("^([a-zA-Z0-9_-]*)->([a-zA-Z0-9_-]*)",$name,$regs) all the strings I want to pass to $GLOBALS. It's not so usefull... 

The same is true with $GLOBALS["foo[0]"];

Thanks for your time.

You only have the syntax wrong.
To access $foo[0] in the global scope, you need to access
$GLOBALS["foo"][0].
To access $foo->bar in the global scope, you need to access
$GLOBALS["foo"]->bar.
