note 111738 added to function.print-r

print_r(), just like var_dump() does NOT cast an object, not even if it has a __toString() method - which is normal. <?php class A { public function __toString() { return 'In class A'; } } $a = new A; echo $a; // In class A print_r($a); // A Object() // you can simulate the echo by casting it manually print_r((string)$a); // In class A ---- Server IP: 69.147.83.199 Probable Submitter: 188.229.32.1 ---- Manual Page -- http://php.net/manual/en/function.print-r.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/111738 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/111738/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/111738/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/111738/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/111738/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/111738/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/111738/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/111738 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/111738 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
