Bug #68186 [Opn->Nab]: A stdClass shouldn't allow invalid proprieties names.

Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=68186&edit=1 ID: 68186 Updated by: leigh@php.net Reported by: ceceldada at gmail dot com Summary: A stdClass shouldn't allow invalid proprieties names. -Status: Open +Status: Not a bug Type: Bug Package: Class/Object related PHP Version: Irrelevant Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: While it is not valid to define a property name with a leading digit in a class definition, the braced syntax in your example is a perfectly legal way of creating these kinds of properties. As an example, if these properties were illegal we wouldn't be able to work with JSON: $obj = json_decode('{"0": "hi"}'); var_dump($obj->{0}); // string(2) "hi" Thanks for taking the time to report this though.
