Description: ------------ While var_dump() produces sensible output for Closures, output of the var_export() is pretty much useless. Test script: --------------- <?php $a = range(1, 3); $foo = function($n) use($a) { return $a[$n]; }; var_dump($foo); var_export($foo); Expected result: ---------------- object(Closure)#1 (2) { ["static"]=> array(1) { ["a"]=> array(3) { [0]=> int(1) [1]=> int(2) [2]=> int(3) } } ["parameter"]=> array(1) { ["$n"]=> string(10) "<required>" } } (((resembling the following:))) object(Closure)#1 (2) { ["static"]=> array(1) { ["a"]=> array(3) { [0]=> int(1) [1]=> int(2) [2]=> int(3) } } ["parameter"]=> array(1) { ["$n"]=> string(10) "<required>" } } Actual result: -------------- object(Closure)#1 (2) { ["static"]=> array(1) { ["a"]=> array(3) { [0]=> int(1) [1]=> int(2) [2]=> int(3) } } ["parameter"]=> array(1) { ["$n"]=> string(10) "<required>" } } Closure::__set_state(array( )) -- Edit bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=63021&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.4): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63021&r=trysnapshot54 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.3): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63021&r=trysnapshot53 Try a snapshot (trunk): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63021&r=trysnapshottrunk Fixed in SVN: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63021&r=fixed Fixed in SVN and need be documented: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63021&r=needdocs Fixed in release: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63021&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63021&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63021&r=needscript Try newer version: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63021&r=oldversion Not developer issue: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63021&r=support Expected behavior: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63021&r=notwrong Not enough info: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63021&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63021&r=submittedtwice register_globals: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63021&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63021&r=php4 Daylight Savings: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63021&r=dst IIS Stability: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63021&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63021&r=gnused Floating point limitations: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63021&r=float No Zend Extensions: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63021&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63021&r=mysqlcfg
