From: Operating system: Ubuntu 11.10 PHP version: 5.4.0RC1 Package: Variables related Bug Type: Bug Bug description:Output of var_dump() has changed
Description: ------------ Maybe it's not a bug, but a behavior change. With all PHP versions prior to 5.4.0 the output of var_dump() for a simple string was enclosed by double quotes. With 5.4.0 this has changed and the string is now enclosed by single quotes, except the string already contains a single quote Test script: --------------- php -r 'var_dump("Manuel");' Expected result: ---------------- string(6) "Manuel" Actual result: -------------- string(6) 'Manuel' -- Edit bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=60358&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.4): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60358&r=trysnapshot54 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.3): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60358&r=trysnapshot53 Try a snapshot (trunk): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60358&r=trysnapshottrunk Fixed in SVN: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60358&r=fixed Fixed in SVN and need be documented: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60358&r=needdocs Fixed in release: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60358&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60358&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60358&r=needscript Try newer version: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60358&r=oldversion Not developer issue: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60358&r=support Expected behavior: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60358&r=notwrong Not enough info: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60358&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60358&r=submittedtwice register_globals: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60358&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60358&r=php4 Daylight Savings: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60358&r=dst IIS Stability: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60358&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60358&r=gnused Floating point limitations: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60358&r=float No Zend Extensions: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60358&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60358&r=mysqlcfg
