Note Submitter: jaimz at vertigolabs dot org ---- @arnold at jasny dot net: That's not unexpected, that should be completely expected. Lets take a look: <?php $foo = "something"; // at this point $foo is a string $bar = (object)$foo; // at this point $bar is an object that contains a property named scalar that is equal to "something" var_dump($foo == $bar); // Outputs "bool(false)" // var_dump outputs the result of the expression, since $foo is a string, and $bar is an object they should not be equal. // maybe this is what you were looking for ? var_dump((object)$foo == $bar); // Outputs "bool(true)" ?>
