On a quick glance I don't think you are doing the casting correctly.  For 
example, you have stuff like:

(string) $string; 

and 

(string) $key;
(int) $val;

and 

(int) $length_value = $match[1];

and the casted value is not being saved anywhere.

I believe it should be something like $string = (string) $string; in order to 
assign the casted value back to the variable.  In the third example, you 
probably meant $length_value = (int) $match[1];
