Bug #77257 [NEW]: value of variable assigned in a switch() construct gets lost
From: mail dot cmcm at gmail dot com
Operating system: Windows 10
PHP version: 7.3.0
Package: *General Issues
Bug Type: Bug
Bug description:value of variable assigned in a switch() construct gets lost
Description:
------------
I basically have this code in a project (in a private static function):
$a = false;
$var = "overview";
switch($var)
{
case "overview":
$a = true;
break;
case "details":
break;
}
console($a);
And with PHP 7.3 the result is "false"! Doesn't happen with PHP
5.6-7.2.
I tried to reproduce this bug outside my project, but couldn't. However
I see nothing in my code that could produce such an odd result. In fact
if I add the console output (via ChromePhp) like this
case "overview":
$a = true;
console($a);
break;
I get "true" on both outputs.
