Just to reiterate, the previous implementation was also bad - it returned an
entirely undocumented and unexpected null value.
In many cases, that will have worked because it was implicitly cast to boolean,
but in some cases it will already have led to a TypeError being thrown, e.g. in
a wrapper like this:
<?php declare(strict_types=1);
class Dir {
private $path;
// ...
public function hasFile(string $name): bool {
return is_file("$path/$name");
}
}
