note 129333 added to function.version-compare

Worth noting that -1 is not equivalent to false. Which is to say that: $current_version = "1.0.0"; $compared_version = "1.2.0"; // if ( 1 ) if (version_compare($current_version, $compared_version) { echo "A newer version is available"; // this is true } but also $current_version = "1.3.0"; $compared_version = "1.2.0"; // if ( -1 ) if (version_compare($current_version, $compared_version) { echo "You are on the most recent version."; // this is also true } In other words, don't rely on the default behavior (the first value is greater than the second value) if what you want is a boolean. ---- Server IP: 45.112.84.4 Probable Submitter: 80.90.13.131 (proxied: 2605:a601:a9ee:e600:7919:ede0:7811:48ca) ---- Manual Page -- https://php.net/manual/en/function.version-compare.php Edit -- https://main.php.net/note/edit/129333 Del: integrated -- https://main.php.net/note/delete/129333/integrated Del: useless -- https://main.php.net/note/delete/129333/useless Del: bad code -- https://main.php.net/note/delete/129333/bad+code Del: spam -- https://main.php.net/note/delete/129333/spam Del: non-english -- https://main.php.net/note/delete/129333/non-english Del: in docs -- https://main.php.net/note/delete/129333/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://main.php.net/note/delete/129333 Reject -- https://main.php.net/note/reject/129333 Search -- https://main.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
