note 48255 added to function.gettype

Here is something that had me stumped with regards to gettype and is_object. Gettype will report an incomplete object as such, whereas is_object will return FALSE. if (!is_object($incomplete_obj)) { echo 'This variable is not an object, it is a/an ' . gettype($incomplete_obj); } Will print: This variable is not an object, it is a/an object ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.gettype.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+48255 Delete -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+48255&report=yes Reason: bad code -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+48255&report=yes&reason=bad+code Reason: spam -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+48255&report=yes&reason=spam Reason: useless example -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+48255&report=yes&reason=useless+example Reason: contains commercial links -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+48255&report=yes&reason=contains+commercial+links Reason: useless note -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+48255&report=yes&reason=useless+note Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+48255&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
