#30694 [Opn->Asn]: array_key_exists doesn't work with protected properties

ID: 30694 Updated by: tony2001@php.net Reported By: guth at fiifo dot u-psud dot fr -Status: Open +Status: Assigned Bug Type: Zend Engine 2 problem Operating System: Linux PHP Version: 5.0.2 -Assigned To: +Assigned To: andi New Comment: Assigning to Andi. But I'd like to add that using objects as arrays of properties should be deprecated IMO, as there are plenty of functions respecting scope (see get_object_vars(), for example) and personally I do not see any sense in duplicating their functionality.

Bad english to explain more, so look at the code. Vincent Guth Reproduce code: --------------- <?php class A { protected $b = 'test'; public $c = 'test'; public function __construct() { var_dump(array_key_exists('b', $this)); var_dump(array_key_exists('c', $this)); } } new A; ?> Expected result: ---------------- bool(true) bool(true) Actual result: -------------- bool(false) bool(true) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=30694&edit=1
