note 119339 added to function.json-encode

echo json_encode('0' => 'Zero', '2' => 'Two'); > {'0' => 'Zero', '2' => 'Two'} echo json_encode('1' => 'One', '2' => 'Two'); > {'1' => 'One', '2' => 'Two'} echo json_encode('0' => 'Zero', '1' => 'One', '2' => 'Two'); > ['Zero', 'One', 'Two'] Whoever decided this default behaviour made sense really must hate programmers. The logic should either work one or not, you can't pick and choose when something should happen, otherwise how can you make generic code? How am I supposed to tell someone using my communication protocol, "Hey, don't use anything that might look like an array cause PHP will break it?" This needs to be fixed. ---- Server IP: 72.52.91.14 Probable Submitter: 173.176.126.144 ---- Manual Page -- http://php.net/manual/en/function.json-encode.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/119339 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/119339/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/119339/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/119339/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/119339/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/119339/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/119339/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/119339 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/119339 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
