Re: 5.4 regression: non-existent sub-sub keys now have values

Hi all, I should think twice before seding mail. "abc" as array index is converted to 0 since it's not a integer. So with current code is behave consistently with regards to string to long conversion. However, PHP 5.3 php -r '$s = "abc"; var_dump($s[0]["bar"]);' PHP Fatal error: Cannot use string offset as an array in Command line code on line 1 PHP 5.4 ./php -r '$s = "abc"; var_dump($s[0]["bar"]);' string(1) "a" Isn't it better to raise notice for accessing string by string index? There is no use to allowing string index access to strings. I think raising notice is feasible. Isn't it? Regards, -- Yasuo Ohgaki yohgaki@ohgaki.net
