I can't think of any case where you'd want to error out when given '100 ' if it would accept '100' quite happily. I'd lean towards a single cast semantic for this, and remove that strict checking flag from zend_parse_parameters(); lazy dynamic type handling for primitive data types is one of the cornerstones of PHP IMO.Yeah, I am leaning towards that as well. I don't like the inconsistency between direct casting via (int) vs. zend_parse_parameter's strict casting. It is much simpler to explain that functions will cast to the required parameter type and have one consistent way to cast things. -Rasmus
