Bug #78481 [Opn->Nab]: Can't use resource as typed param

Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=78481&edit=1 ID: 78481 Updated by: requinix@php.net Reported by: momchil at bojinov dot info Summary: Can't use resource as typed param -Status: Open +Status: Not a bug Type: Bug Package: *General Issues Operating System: Windows 10 PHP Version: 7.4.0beta4 Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: resource is not available as for type declarations because it says nothing about what type of resource it is. Your function would allow GD resources, but also file streams and cURL handles and other things you don't want. The type would be a false sense of security and so is not supported.
