This seems like something that should produce a warning or notice. Test script: --------------- class Foo { public function bar($param, $param) { echo $param; } } $foo = new Foo(); $foo->bar('param1', 'param2'); Expected result: ---------------- I feel as though this should produce a warning or notice. Actual result: -------------- Runs without any issues and echos 'param2' ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=54310&edit=1
