- NOTHING stops you from passing NULL to functions.
- Typhints are a shortcut for an 'instanceof'`test
- now try NULL instanceof stdclass:
php-cvs $ php -r 'var_dump(NULL instanceof stdclass);'
bool(false)
- what you probablywant is
function bla($x) {
if (is_null($x)) {
// handle null
} else if ($x instanceof whatever) {
// handle instance
} else {
// handle error
}
}
- if you look again you'll see that you are doing *three different*
things in your code. Typehints have a different usage!
best regards
