From: tomas dot matousek at matfyz dot cz Operating system: WinXP PHP version: 4.3.4 PHP Bug Type: Class/Object related Bug description: Property name must be a string
Description: ------------ The rules for property names are inconsistent. See comments in submitted code. Reproduce code: --------------- <? // this is ok $a->{"x"} = 1; // fatal error: $a->{18.5} = 1; // fatal error: $a->{1} = 1; // but this one passes thru: $a->{true} = 1; // so do this: $a->{18.5} = 1; // and this too: $a->{1} = 1; ?> Expected result: ---------------- Either convert floats, integers and booleans to strings automatically or report fatal error in all cases when property name is not a string (i.e. if it is object, array, resource, boolean, integer, float, NULL). Actual result: -------------- Fatal error: Property name must be a string ... -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=26601&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (php4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26601&r=trysnapshot4 Try a CVS snapshot (php5): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26601&r=trysnapshot5 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26601&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26601&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26601&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26601&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26601&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26601&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26601&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26601&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26601&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26601&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26601&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26601&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26601&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26601&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26601&r=float
