Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=55354&edit=1 ID: 55354 Updated by: iliaa@php.net Reported by: rick dot van dot ravensberg at tribal-im dot com Summary: Incorrect typecasting of keys in json_encode w/ JSON_NUMERIC_CHECK set -Status: Assigned +Status: Bogus Type: Bug Package: JSON related Operating System: Windows 7 PHP Version: 5.3.6 Assigned To: iliaa Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php The numeric check only works on values. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2011-08-03 23:21:14] felipe@php.net The JSON_NUMERIC_CHECK is supposed to work in the value, not the key. Is it right, @Ilia? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2011-08-03 11:31:11] rick dot van dot ravensberg at tribal-im dot com Description: ------------ When using json_encode with JSON_NUMERIC_CHECK, json_encode still converts all array keys to a string, instead of keeping integer keys as integer. However, the JSON_NUMERIC_CHECK option does work correctly on all the array values. Test script: --------------- <?php $array = array ( 1 => "foo", 5 => "bar", "10" => 50, ); echo json_encode ($array, JSON_NUMERIC_CHECK); ?> Expected result: ---------------- {1:"foo",5:"bar","10":50} Actual result: -------------- {"1":"foo","5":"bar","10":50} ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=55354&edit=1
