Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=67288&edit=1 ID: 67288 Updated by: aharvey@php.net Reported by: benjamin dot morel at gmail dot com Summary: GMP functions accept strings in addition to resources Status: Open Type: Documentation Problem Package: Documentation problem Operating System: Irrelevant PHP Version: Irrelevant Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: This is going to get even messier in PHP 5.6, since the resources are changing to objects. We'll have to figure out the best way to document this. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2014-05-15 22:11:34] benjamin dot morel at gmail dot com Please note that this needs to be fixed in all gmp_* functions, not just gmp_add(). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2014-05-15 22:09:56] benjamin dot morel at gmail dot com Description: ------------ The documentation for gmp_add() for example: http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.gmp-add.php Says about parameters: > It can be either a GMP number resource, or a numeric string given that it is possible to > convert the latter to a number. So the function signature is wrong. Expected result: ---------------- resource gmp_add ( resource|string $a , resource|string $b ) Actual result: -------------- resource gmp_add ( resource $a , resource $b ) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=67288&edit=1
