From: php at lightning dot hu Operating system: Linux PHP version: Irrelevant Package: SPL related Bug Type: Bug Bug description:Overloading __toString() in SplFileInfo has no effect
Description: ------------ When I overload the __toString() magic method in the SplFileInfo class or in one of it's derivatives it does not work if I concatenate the object with a string. See the example for a simple demonstration. Test script: --------------- class A extends \SplFileInfo { public function __toString() {return ' -expected- ';} } $a = new A('/'); // Works echo $a, $a->__toString(), $a->__toString() . ''; // Does not work - outputs parent::__toString() echo $a . ''; Expected result: ---------------- -expected- -expected- -expected- / -- Edit bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=64023&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.4): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64023&r=trysnapshot54 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.3): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64023&r=trysnapshot53 Try a snapshot (trunk): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64023&r=trysnapshottrunk Fixed in SVN: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64023&r=fixed Fixed in release: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64023&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64023&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64023&r=needscript Try newer version: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64023&r=oldversion Not developer issue: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64023&r=support Expected behavior: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64023&r=notwrong Not enough info: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64023&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64023&r=submittedtwice register_globals: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64023&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64023&r=php4 Daylight Savings: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64023&r=dst IIS Stability: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64023&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64023&r=gnused Floating point limitations: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64023&r=float No Zend Extensions: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64023&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64023&r=mysqlcfg
