[PHP-DEV] array(...)[]

Hi, I've just seen that finally it's possible to do "$object->getOtherObject()->doSomething()" with PHP5 which was not possible in PHP4. But I wonder why something like this still does not work: $object->returnArray()[$index] returnArray()[$index] array(1,2,3,4)[$index] It would be really

[PHP-DEV] Array Question

Hello, In PHP4 and PHP5 the following syntax works fine (note the last comma): array ( 1 => 'bob', 2 => 'sam', ); Is being able to have a comma at the END of an array definition a supported feature, or an undocumented feature that should not be used? Thanks, Jason Garber _

Hello all, The array() syntax to me screams function call, something that, in my mind, did not intuitively mean assign an array to a plain ole variable. If I can: $var1 = 5; why would I need a special function call "array()" to create and assign an array? An array is just like any other variab

Hello mr. Antonio Touriño, So as if I understand, you want to change the syntax of array() keyword. Will you mind to update the changes in all php scripts in the world too? PS. You can always have your [] in custom patch, but I do not think it's useful to want it globally changed.

Re: [PHP-DEV] Array objects & array functions

More specifically I was thinking of starting with adding an SPL interface called ArraySearchable, and modifying php_search_array in ext/standard/array.c to accept an object that implements that interface, in which case the appropriate interface method is called. What this interface would do? I

[PHP-DEV] Array map with reset function

The following code stopped working in PHP 8: https://3v4l.org/UlIE3 is it a bug or a feature? is posting issues like this to internals@lists.php.net email prefered over opening bug directly? or is there any special email for it? With kind regards / Mit freundlichen Grüßen / S přátelským p

[PHP-DEV] Array functions with strict comparison

Hello internals, I noticed that array functions like array_diff(), array_intersect() etc use weak comparison. E.g. array_diff([0, '', false, null], [null]) only leaves [0]. This makes these functions useless for a number of applications. Also it can lead to unpleasant surprises, if a developer is
