Hi,
i have tried a current snapshot of PHP 5.3 and have a question regarding
type hinting.
For example when using the function
"array_slice(array $array, int $offset, int $length)"
with a non-integer length parameter, what is the desired behavior?
When calling
"array_slice($array, 0, (float)2);"
the resulting array is EMPTY.
When using the right type
"array_slice($array, 0, (int)2);"
it works as expected.
Shouldn't there be a notice/warning than just a wrong return value?
In my case there is neither a warning nor does it work as expected.
(perhaps i do something wrong?)
Of course i can use int's, but in my opinion either a warning should be
given or the function should gracefully handle the wrong typed parameter.
Is this problem specific to "array_splice" or the same with other
functions? It works with 5.2.x without a problem.
Thank you for any feedback,
Dirk
PS: i posted this to php-general before and someone supposed to better
post it to the iternals list
