Bug #12626: string to int incorrect if string containts 0 characters

From: stefan.priebsch@e-novative.de Operating system: win32 PHP version: 4.0.6 PHP Bug Type: Scripting Engine problem Bug description: string to int incorrect if string containts 0 characters if you convert a string containing chr(0) characters to an int, php cuts off conversion on reaching the first ascii 0. The resulting integer is incorrect, of course. I found it out having a string constructed of concatenated single characters which would not convert correctly. However, checking the string length would show more characters than those visible. Basic string handling stuff seems to work ok on those strings, however. This seems weird because I would have expected php to consider the first 0 character terminate the string, which it does not. Or does it?
