They could, but I don't think they should. Converting a resource to string doesn't make a
lot of sense, and is only really useful for debugging code. I don't believe that using
__toString() for debug representations is considered acceptable.

These classes could support conversion to string for BC reasons.

This is why we ask for a "complete example script".
> With this new "feature" in PHP 8 that objects are not converted to strings,
PHP has never allowed objects to be converted to strings. Not unless they implemented __toString.
Nothing about this has changed for PHP 8.

Sorry. Not a bug. The debug statement following the create statements tried to convert the function
result to string for printing. When I disabled the debug output, then everything worked as it
should. With this new "feature" in PHP 8 that objects are not converted to strings, I
need to check a lot of my existing code. This situation may impact many users and it should be
emphasized as a very incompatible change in this new PHP version.

exactly which line are you saying gives that error?
I'm pretty sure you aren't including the actual line of code is giving that error in your
bug report, and that the error lies elsewhere.
