#21918 [Asn]: strange behaviour of mixed type in array-keys

ID: 21918 Updated by: zeev@php.net Reported By: messju at lammfellpuschen dot de Status: Assigned Bug Type: Scripting Engine problem Operating System: * PHP Version: 4.3.3-RC3/5.0.0b2 Assigned To: zeev New Comment: It's not 'broken' again, what I reverted had nothing to do with this bug. Look at the diff before you start shouting! I'm still not sure if we'll keep the auto conversion for negative numbers. My preference is to fix the docs, since all sorts of other notations don't work, and we have no intention on making them work (e.g., $foo["+7"], $foo["3.5"], etc. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-08-12 18:45:55] sniper@php.net Zeev could at least explain WHY he reverted the fix.. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-08-12 15:46:46] helly@php.net Broken again ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-08-11 15:15:35] helly@php.net This bug has been fixed in CVS. In case this was a PHP problem, snapshots of the sources are packaged every three hours; this change will be in the next snapshot. You can grab the snapshot at http://snaps.php.net/. In case this was a documentation problem, the fix will show up soon at http://www.php.net/manual/. In case this was a PHP.net website problem, the change will show up on the PHP.net site and on the mirror sites in short time. Thank you for the report, and for helping us make PHP better. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-02-08 12:35:57] moriyoshi@php.net Related to bug #8325 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-01-29 02:22:57] messju at lammfellpuschen dot de I relied on http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.types.array.php it states: "A key is either an integer or a string. If a key is the standard representation of an integer, it will be interpreted as such (i.e. "8" will be interpreted as 8, while "08" will be interpreted as "08")." so the keys should be casted to int, or it is a documentation-bug, or "-1" is not a "standard representation of an integer". ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
