It is very important to note that this bug occurs only in my french system.
Example:
$a=1.5;
printf("the value is $a, type is %s",gettype($a));
--> outputs
the value is 1, type is double
So, the ".5" has been lost, but the type is correct.
Explanation:
in the "local options" (or "region option"? I don't know, my system is in french), at
the tab "numbers", the decimal symbol is set to ",". If I change it to ".", it works.
If I switch back to ",", it doesn't work.
At the moment, to enter constants in PHP, I must do:
$a=(double)"1,5".
So, it could be better for the PHP parser to be "language neutral", to avoid such
problems.
Let me know if there is something I can do.
