Hello Tom,
with default return value I mean to return a certain value if nothing else is returned (similar to
method parameters with a default value).
example 1:
declare(strict_types=0);
function my_strpos(string $haystack, string $needle): int = false {
return 42; // return 42
return false; // return false
return true; // return 1
return; // return false
}
example 2:
declare(strict_types=1);
function my_strpos(string $haystack, string $needle): int = false {
return 42; // return 42
return false; // return false
return true; // fatal error
return; // return false
}
Regards
Thomas
