Bug #81310 [NEW]: Clarify UPGRADING entry (bug?)

From: alec Operating system: PHP version: 8.1.0beta1 Package: PDO MySQL Bug Type: Bug Bug description:Clarify UPGRADING entry (bug?) Description: ------------ In UPGRADING there's this: " - PDO MySQL: . Integers and floats in result sets will now be returned using native PHP types instead of strings when using emulated prepared statements. This matches the behavior of native prepared statements. You can restore the previous behavior by enabling the PDO::ATTR_STRINGIFY_FETCHES option. " In my code I don't use prepare()/execute(), nor PDO::ATTR_EMULATE_PREPARES. All I use is query()/fetch(). However, I noticed that I started getting integers instead of strings now. So, is that a bug? Maybe query() uses prepared queries internally. But then maybe it should be clarified, that it has really nothing to do with prepared statements mode. -- Edit bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=81310&edit=1 -- Fix committed: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=81310&r=fixed Fixed in release: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=81310&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=81310&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=81310&r=needscript Try newer version: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=81310&r=oldversion Not developer issue: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=81310&r=support Expected behavior: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=81310&r=notwrong Not enough info: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=81310&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=81310&r=submittedtwice register_globals: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=81310&r=globals PHP version support discontinued: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=81310&r=phptooold Daylight Savings: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=81310&r=dst IIS Stability: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=81310&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=81310&r=gnused Floating point limitations: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=81310&r=float No Zend Extensions: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=81310&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=81310&r=mysqlcfg
