Problem with call_user_func_array and passing an array of objects

Hi,

I wish to call function f($params) using call_user_func_array() and pass to
f() an array of two objects as a parameter.

When I call f() directly, it works as expected. Function f() recognises that
2 objects are in the array and I can access their member variables.

When I call the same function via call_user_func_array(), function f()
recognises only the first object. Also, the same code that I used to access
the objects when f() was called directly does not work when f() is called
via call_user_func_array().

I have included some sample code below to illustrate the problem.

I am running PHP version 4.2.2 on Windows NT 5.0 and Apache 2.0.39.
I also have the same problem when I run PHP 4.3.0 on Linux and Apache 1.3.27

Thanks in advance for your help.

<?
class tst
{
var $v1;
var $v2;

function tst($a, $b)
{
$this->v1 = $a;
$this->v2 = $b;
}
}

$tst1 = new tst("a", "b");
$tst2 = new tst("d", "e");

$arr = array($tst1, $tst2);

echo("<B>Call function f() as regular function</B><BR>");
f($arr);

echo("<B>Calling function f() via call_user_func_array()</B><BR>");
call_user_func_array(f, $arr);

function f($params)
{
var_dump($params);
echo("Count=" . count($params). "<BR>");
echo("Param[0]->v1=" . $params[0]->v1 . " Param[0]->v2=" . $params[0]->v2
.. "<BR>");
echo("Param[1]->v1=" . $params[1]->v1 . " Param[1]->v2=" . $params[1]->v2
.. "<BR>");
echo("<P>");
}

?>

OUTPUT >>>>>

Call function f() as regular function
