#19180 [NEW]: Wrong descriptions in language/types.xml

From: dallas@php.net Operating system: PHP version: 4CVS-2002-08-29 PHP Bug Type: Documentation problem Bug description: Wrong descriptions in language/types.xml In http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.types.type-juggling.php there's a sample: $a = 1; // $a is an integer $a[0] = "f"; // $a becomes an array, with $a[0] holding "f" Which will issue an warning: Warning: Cannot use a scalar value as an array in cast.php on line 3 and $a is still a int(1). Tried PHP 4.2.3 under Windows and PHP 4.0.6 under Linux with same result. And in http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.types.string.php inside the Heredoc warning it said: Probably the nastiest gotcha is that there may also not be a carriage return (\r) at the end of the line, only a form feed, AKA newline (\n). Since Microsoft Windows uses the sequence \r\n as a line terminator, your heredoc may not work if you write your script in a Windows editor. However, most programming editors provide a way to save your files with a UNIX line terminator. Which is actually not true. PHP 4 seems working fine with Windows line terminator in Heredoc syntax. Also tried PHP 4.2.3 under Windows and PHP 4.0.6 under Linux, they both work correctly without any problem. -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=19180&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=19180&r=trysnapshot Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=19180&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=19180&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=19180&r=needtrace Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=19180&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=19180&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=19180&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=19180&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=19180&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=19180&r=globals
