Summary: Division By Zero triggers Warning instead of Fatal
Error
-Status: Open
+Status: Bogus
Type: Bug
Package: Math related
Operating System: Linux
PHP Version: 5.3.2
New Comment:
Division by zero generating a warning rather than an error has been
PHP's behaviour since at least April 1999, per a couple of minutes with
svn blame/log. I don't see much chance that we'd want to break backward
compatibility on that now.

Description:
------------
In PHP 5.3 (and probably 5.2x as well) a division by Zero returns null
and
squelches a warning. The issue becomes when the return is cast to Int
as is done
via soap service which is where I discovered this issue.
Test script:
---------------
<?PHP
$val = 5/0;
echo (int)$val;
Expected result:
----------------
Fatal Error: Division by zero in /var/www/reproduction/test.php on line
3
Actual result:
--------------
Warning: Division by zero in /var/www/reproduction/test.php on line 3
int(0)
