Hi!
If all other functions return NULL with wrong args, why should get_class return false? Is there any value in it besides the fact that docs say so?
The main reason is the documentation. It introduces a useless BC break which was reported in #47664.
Well, sometimes a bug is a bug and we can't keep BC just for bugs, unless it is useful for something. -- Stanislav Malyshev, Zend Software Architect stas@zend.com http://www.zend.com/ (408)253-8829 MSN: stas@zend.com
