Same here, i never even knew that this worked in a string context until recently. Autocast/comparison rules are already complicated enough as they are documented now, and i failed to find anything in the manual that would actually say that hex in a string context is support to work at all ... I can't really judge the BC implications though, so the best way would be to start throwing E_DEPRECATED warnings for now ... or maybe go the X11 way of "deliberately break obscure feature and see how many complaints we get" ;) -- hartmut -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
