I'm not able to say if the patch has adverse performance impact or introduces some strangeness you purposely left out. It looks good to me ? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2014-01-03 13:42:59] krakjoe@php.net All Zend and ext/standard/string tests passing ... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2014-01-03 13:41:17] krakjoe@php.net Patch attached ... while this has the desired outcome, I've not tested and don't know if it introduces inconsistencies elsewhere. I would assume there is some non-obvious reason this wasn't done in the first place ? <?php $bin = "0b100"; $hex = "0x04"; var_dump((int) $bin, (int) $hex); var_dump((double) $bin, (double) $hex); var_dump(is_numeric($bin)); var_dump(is_numeric($hex)); var_dump(intval($bin), intval($hex)); var_dump(floatval($bin), floatval($hex)); Yields: int(4) int(4) float(4) float(4) bool(true) bool(true) int(4) int(4) float(4) float(4) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2014-01-03 13:39:44] krakjoe@php.net The following patch has been added/updated: Patch Name: inconsistent-bin-hex-handling.patch Revision: 1388756384 URL: https://bugs.php.net/patch-display.php?bug=66399&patch=inconsistent-bin-hex-handling.patch&revision=1388756384 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
