note 88460 added to language.types.object

Another reply to bob: Explicit types of objects are good, as wbcarts, and Rick's solution is the one I use for a throwaway generic object (and I do have uses for them), but there is another way to create a new naked object and it _is_ documented on this very page. "If a value of any other type is converted to an object, a new instance of the stdClass built-in class is created. If the value was NULL, the new instance will be empty." In code: $obj = (object)null; $obj->blah = 3; That might still be regarded as "ghetto" - especially since Rick's suggestion is more explicit - but it is better than a random unset. ---- Server IP: 202.89.58.1 Probable Submitter: 114.134.161.9 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.types.object.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/88460 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/88460/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/88460/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/88460/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/88460/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/88460/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/88460/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/88460 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/88460 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
