Summary: json_decode looses data
Status: Open
Type: Bug
Package: JSON related
Operating System: Linux
PHP Version: 5.2.14
Block user comment: N
New Comment:
I can't see any really easy way to achieve this since properties and
array keys are unique in PHP. Perhaps some overloading with objects but
that would be dirty/hackish

Description:
------------
According to RFC 4627, section 2.2, "The names within an object SHOULD
be unique." This is only a SHOULD not a MUST, so the following is
valid
{"foo":2,"foo":3}
Unfortunately in PHP this only returns the last object member.
Test script:
---------------
var_dump(json_decode('{"foo":2,"foo":3}'));
Expected result:
----------------
an object with a way of accessing both members or an error raised by
json_decode
Actual result:
--------------
object(stdClass)#1 (1) {
["foo"]=>
int(3)
}
