#38907 [NEW]: Somewhat misleading notice message with type conversions

From: smlerman at gmail dot com Operating system: Windows (presumably others) PHP version: 5.1.6 PHP Bug Type: Variables related Bug description: Somewhat misleading notice message with type conversions Description: ------------ If you try to compare an object to a string, the error message says that the object could not be converted to an int. It makes it a little more difficult to debug code when you're looking for a comparison involving an integer instead of a string. Nothing really major, but a would-be-nice kind of fix. Reproduce code: --------------- <?php class Foo{} $obj = new Foo(); if ($obj == "blah"){ echo "foo"; } else{ echo "bar"; } ?> Expected result: ---------------- Notice: Object of class Foo could not be converted to string in int_convert.php on line 7 Actual result: -------------- Notice: Object of class Foo could not be converted to int in int_convert.php on line 7 -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=38907&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 4.4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=38907&r=trysnapshot44 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.2): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=38907&r=trysnapshot52 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 6.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=38907&r=trysnapshot60 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=38907&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=38907&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=38907&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=38907&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=38907&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=38907&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=38907&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=38907&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=38907&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=38907&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=38907&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=38907&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=38907&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=38907&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=38907&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=38907&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=38907&r=mysqlcfg
