Hi! > I submitted a GitHub PR* to allow objects implementing __toString() to > *optionally* pass is_string() validation. More verbose wording of my > motivation can be seen in the PR description, but here are the main > points:
I don't think it's right approach. is_* functions check the current type of the value, not whether it can be converted to another type. If we need ones that express the latter, we should have different functions. Also, as already noted, having __toString doesn't mean it returns something useful. -- Stas Malyshev smalys...@gmail.com -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
