From: jshah4517 at gmail dot com Operating system: Linux PHP version: 7.3.5 Package: IMAP related Bug Type: Documentation Problem Bug description:imap_open() expects parameter 6 to be array, null given Description: ------------ The documentation suggests the default value of the last parameter in the imap_open function is NULL. imap_open ( string $mailbox , string $username , string $password [, int $options = 0 [, int $n_retries = 0 [, array $params = NULL ]]] ) : resource However entering NULL as the value for that parameter produces the following error: imap_open() expects parameter 6 to be array, null given Test script: --------------- imap_open('{imap.example.com:993/imap/ssl}INBOX', 'username', 'password', 0, 0, null); Expected result: ---------------- Based on the documentation, it should allow NULL as a value. Otherwise the documentation should be changed to show this parameter as an empty array. -- Edit bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=78030&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.4): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=78030&r=trysnapshot54 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.5): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=78030&r=trysnapshot55 Try a snapshot (trunk): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=78030&r=trysnapshottrunk Fixed in SVN: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=78030&r=fixed Fixed in release: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=78030&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=78030&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=78030&r=needscript Try newer version: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=78030&r=oldversion Not developer issue: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=78030&r=support Expected behavior: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=78030&r=notwrong Not enough info: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=78030&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=78030&r=submittedtwice register_globals: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=78030&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=78030&r=php4 Daylight Savings: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=78030&r=dst IIS Stability: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=78030&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=78030&r=gnused Floating point limitations: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=78030&r=float No Zend Extensions: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=78030&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=78030&r=mysqlcfg
