#43935 [NEW]: (1 == 'foo') = true

From: james dot laver at gmail dot com Operating system: GNU/Linux PHP version: 5.2.5 PHP Bug Type: Scripting Engine problem Bug description: (1 == 'foo') = true Description: ------------ (1 == 'foo') returns boolean true The documentation claims otherwise (see http://www.php.net/manual/en/types.comparisons.php) Logically this cannot be true, and it should not be necessary to use === to perform this. Reproduce code: --------------- echo "value: " . (true == 'foo'); Expected result: ---------------- "value: 0" Actual result: -------------- "value: 1" -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=43935&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 4.4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43935&r=trysnapshot44 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.2): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43935&r=trysnapshot52 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.3): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43935&r=trysnapshot53 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 6.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43935&r=trysnapshot60 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43935&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43935&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43935&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43935&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43935&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43935&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43935&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43935&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43935&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43935&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43935&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43935&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43935&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43935&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43935&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43935&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43935&r=mysqlcfg
