Both are now on http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=43541. Ignore the first of the three, it breaks when the length param isn't passed. I'm going offline before I say anything else stupid :) - Steph ----- Original Message ----- From: "Steph Fox" <steph@zend.com> To: "Stanislav Malyshev" <stas@zend.com> Cc: <internals@lists.php.net> Sent: Monday, December 10, 2007 8:12 PM Subject: Re: [PHP-DEV] question regarding type hinting parameters of php functions (array_slice)
So it's better to check for == 0? What's the difference? Is an IS_NULL check slower?
No, it's not slower, but it makes no sense to compare variable value to a type constant. Even if coincidentally constant value is the same one you need to compare to.
OK, so if I clean up those patches and re-send, will one of them be applied? (It'd be nice to have some idea which one...) - Steph
