from the CI doc i see in the "Backup Your Database" section
// Backup your entire database and assign it to a variable
$backup =& $this->dbutil->backup();
but it brings a runtime error:
Severity: Runtime Notice
Message: Only variables should be assigned by reference
from Php manual
http://php.net/manual/en/language.operat...gnment.php
As of PHP 5, the new operator returns a reference automatically, so assigning the result of new by reference results in an E_DEPRECATED message in PHP 5.3 and later, and an E_STRICT message in earlier versions.
simply removing the & works fine.
please update the doc
