Bug #77038 [NEW]: Object to Array conversion gives duplicate keys

From: jonathan at x6 dot nl Operating system: CentOS Linux release 7.5.1804 PHP version: 7.0.32 Package: *General Issues Bug Type: Bug Bug description:Object to Array conversion gives duplicate keys Description: ------------ In the case if you have a stdClass with only numeric keys (for example, this is a decoded json string). And convert it to array, it will change the keys to strings. If you then add that same value as an integer into the array, it will be added to the array. If you then do a json_encode, you get an invalid json string, because you have duplicate keys. It seems somehow that when the object is converted to array, the types of values will be changed. This seems like a bug, since in our particular example we tried to check if an ID was already in the array (with doing isset($array[$id])). This example returned false because the ID was changed to a string. Test script: --------------- <?php // Create new stdClass with numeric attribute, stored as string. $bla = new stdClass; $bla->{"1012"} = "Value 1"; $bla->{1012} = "Value 2"; // Convert to array $bla = (array) $bla; if (!isset($bla[1012])) { // ISSET fails, because it is now "1012" instead of 1012 var_dump($bla); $bla[1012] = "Value 4"; } var_dump($bla); echo json_encode($bla); Expected result: ---------------- The object needs to be correctly converted. -- Edit bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=77038&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.4): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=77038&r=trysnapshot54 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.5): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=77038&r=trysnapshot55 Try a snapshot (trunk): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=77038&r=trysnapshottrunk Fixed in SVN: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=77038&r=fixed Fixed in release: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=77038&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=77038&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=77038&r=needscript Try newer version: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=77038&r=oldversion Not developer issue: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=77038&r=support Expected behavior: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=77038&r=notwrong Not enough info: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=77038&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=77038&r=submittedtwice register_globals: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=77038&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=77038&r=php4 Daylight Savings: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=77038&r=dst IIS Stability: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=77038&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=77038&r=gnused Floating point limitations: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=77038&r=float No Zend Extensions: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=77038&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=77038&r=mysqlcfg
