But Yes I can :) *copy past smallest example from the gist* Code (example4): function bar(boolean $foo): boolean{return $foo;} var_dump(bar((bool)true)); Output: PHP Fatal error: Uncaught TypeError: Argument 1 passed to bar() must be an instance of boolean, boolean given, called in ./example4.php:2 Stack trace: #0 ./example4.php(3): bar(true) #1 {main} thrown in ./example4.php on line 2 Code (example5): function bar(bool $foo): bool{return $foo;} var_dump(bar((boolean)true)); Output: bool(true)
