I'm not sure I'm seeing improvements over the other RFCs here ... or I just missed something obvious. From a quick glance, this one here: Type declration "string" and you pass in a "bool" type. When in practive the conversion is like this: $ php -r 'var_dump( (string) false ); var_dump( (string) true );' string(0) "" string(1) "1" $ php -v PHP 5.5.9-1ubuntu4.6 (cli) (built: Feb 13 2015 19:17:11) - Markus -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
