This issue has already been fixed in the latest released version of PHP, which you can download at http://www.php.net/downloads.php The misleading note was removed. Thanks for pointing it out. PR: https://github.com/php/doc-en/pull/240 Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2016-01-16 19:47:33] marcgala at hotmail dot com Description: ------------ http://php.net/manual/en/mysqli-result.free.php explicitly claims that: "You should always free your result with mysqli_free_result(), when your result object is not needed anymore." However, both examples at http://php.net/manual/en/mysqli-stmt.get-result.php use mysqli_result and do never call any variant of mysqli_free_result(). This is inconsistent. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=71392&edit=1
