ID: 32294 Updated by: philip@php.net Reported By: mpr at er dot dtu dot dk -Status: Open +Status: Closed Bug Type: Documentation problem Operating System: Irrelevant PHP Version: Irrelevant New Comment: These docs have been rewritten and will show up when the manual is next built. Thanks for the report! Here's the diff: * http://cvs.php.net/diff.php/phpdoc/en/reference/var/functions/intval.xml?r1=1.3&r2=1.4 User notes and various return value information (including integer overflow) was added. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-03-13 23:26:39] mpr at er dot dtu dot dk Ooops, "will return -1" should read "will return 0" ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-03-13 23:01:56] mpr at er dot dtu dot dk Description: ------------ Intval documentation doesn't mention what the return value of intval applied to a non-nummeric string will be. Ie. Doesn't mention that intval("this is not a number, and can never be interpreted as one"); will return -1. Furthermore there's quite a few user contributed notes, that deal with intvals return value being undefined in case of integer overflow. This, IMHO, should be documented too. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=32294&edit=1
