PHP Bug Type: JSON related
Bug description: JSON does not properly encode Arrays
Description:
------------
After manipulating arrays using [] or creating an array in the form
array("key" => value, ...) or calling unset on an array element.
json_encode will encode the array as an object rather than an array.
Reproduce code:
---------------
echo json_encode(array(1 => new stdClass(), 2 => new stdClass(), 3 => new
stdClass()));
$m = array();
$m[1] = new stdClass();
$m[2] = new stdClass();
$m[3] = new stdClass();
echo json_encode($m);
$m = array_values($m);
echo json_encode($m);
unset($m[0]);
echo json_encode((array) $m);
Expected result:
----------------
["1":{},"2":{},"3":{}]
["1":{},"2":{},"3":{}]
[{},{},{}]
["1":{},"2":{}]
Actual result:
--------------
{"1":{},"2":{},"3":{}}
{"1":{},"2":{},"3":{}}
[{},{},{}]
{"1":{},"2":{}}
