ID: 52184 Updated by: johan...@php.net Reported by: egorinsk at gmail dot com Summary: Using null as array gives no warning or error -Status: Open +Status: Bogus Type: Bug Package: *General Issues Operating System: linux PHP Version: 5.3.2 New Comment: Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php You aren't accessing an array offset but a string offset. null is casted to String. The string is shorter than the offset (length is 0) so it returns NULL.

It is at least strange. Test script: --------------- <?php error_reporting(E_ALL); $a = null; echo $a[12]; // Gives no warning, notice or error ?> Expected result: ---------------- Some kind of notice or warning. Actual result: -------------- (nothing) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=52184&edit=1
