#40692 [NEW]: Trying to use boolean as array doesn't give an error
From: smlerman at gmail dot com
Operating system: Any
PHP version: 5.2.1
PHP Bug Type: Scripting Engine problem
Bug description: Trying to use boolean as array doesn't give an error
Description:
------------
If you try to use a boolean as an array (which most likely means an error
occurred somewhere), the value is correctly returned as NULL, but no error
message is reported. Obviously not a major problem, but it would make
debugging a little easier.
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
var_dump(error_reporting());
$a = false;
var_dump($a[0]);
$b = (string)$a;
var_dump($b[0]);
?>
Expected result:
----------------
int(8191)
[Something like] Notice: Cannot use boolean as array in C:\Documents and
Settings\...\boolean_array.php on line 5
NULL
Notice: Uninitialized string offset: 0 in C:\Documents and
Settings\...\boolean_array.php on line 8
string(0) ""
Actual result:
--------------
int(8191)
NULL
Notice: Uninitialized string offset: 0 in C:\Documents and
Settings\Scott\My Documents\Test Files\boolean_array.php on line 8
string(0) ""
