Re: Possibilities to fix some really poor behaviors in PHP7

Hi! > ... like the hidden array element: http://3v4l.org/6uFqf > ... like the hidden object property: http://3v4l.org/RPJXH The issue seems to be that array lookup always looks for numeric results when looking for numeric-like keys. But when adding property, the numeric check is not done since properties are not supposed to be numeric. Thus, when converting the object to array, the property named "123" becomes inaccessible, because in array it is supposed to be under number 123. We could, of course, add numeric checks to properties, but it would slow things down only to serve very narrow use case with hardly any legit uses. We could also rewrite hashtable with numeric keys instead of string keys when doing conversion, but again that would be significant slowdown for a very rare use case. Not sure it's worth it. -- Stanislav Malyshev, Software Architect SugarCRM: http://www.sugarcrm.com/
