Doc #71051 [NEW]: Type Hint about SeekableIterator::seek does not match with informed

From: gabriel dot heming at hotmail dot com Operating system: Debian 8.2 PHP version: 7.0.0 Package: SPL related Bug Type: Documentation Problem Bug description:Type Hint about SeekableIterator::seek does not match with informed Description: ------------ When I try match method assignature of my implementation of SeekableIterator, that one does not match with information from documentation. http://php.net/manual/en/seekableiterator.seek.php abstract public void SeekableIterator::seek ( int $position ); Test script: --------------- <?php declare(strict_types=1); class MySeekableIterator implements SeekableIterator { /** omitted properties and methods methods **/ /* Method required for SeekableIterator interface */ public function seek(int $position) { if (!isset($this->array[$position])) { throw new OutOfBoundsException("invalid seek position ($position)"); } $this->position = $position; } } Expected result: ---------------- Nothing. Should be exactly one as documentation. Actual result: -------------- Declaration of MySeekableIterator::seek(int $position) must be compatible with SeekableIterator::seek($position) If I omit the type hint, works fine. But documentation give me other information, as appended above. -- Edit bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=71051&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.4): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=71051&r=trysnapshot54 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.5): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=71051&r=trysnapshot55 Try a snapshot (trunk): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=71051&r=trysnapshottrunk Fixed in SVN: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=71051&r=fixed Fixed in release: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=71051&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=71051&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=71051&r=needscript Try newer version: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=71051&r=oldversion Not developer issue: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=71051&r=support Expected behavior: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=71051&r=notwrong Not enough info: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=71051&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=71051&r=submittedtwice register_globals: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=71051&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=71051&r=php4 Daylight Savings: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=71051&r=dst IIS Stability: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=71051&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=71051&r=gnused Floating point limitations: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=71051&r=float No Zend Extensions: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=71051&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=71051&r=mysqlcfg
