It should rather just throw exceptions. Warnings do not really allow error handling, they just allow error reporting.

Agreed, but I can't see Exceptions passing the vote. Warnings can be silenced by those that don't care and converted to Exceptions by those that do

Could we not simply make it a flag? e.g.

    $bar = json_encode($foo, JSON_THROW_EXCEPTIONS);
    $baz = json_decode($bar, false, 512, JSON_THROW_EXCEPTIONS);

That wouldn't break backwards-compatibility, but would still provide the desired functionality. :) -- Andrea Faulds https://ajf.me/
