note 98483 added to function.var-export

I learned the hard way that if var_export encounters a resource handle it exports it as "NULL", even if it is a valid handle. The documentation states that a handle cannot be exported, but it does not describe what happens if you try to do so anyway. I had been using var_export in some debugging code while tracing a problem with a resource handle not being generated and ended up thinking that null handles were still being generated long after the problem had been fixed. ---- Server IP: 208.69.120.55 Probable Submitter: 72.55.216.246 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.var-export.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/98483 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/98483/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/98483/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/98483/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/98483/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/98483/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/98483/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/98483 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/98483 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
