From: nightcat at poczta dot onet dot pl Operating system: Linux PHP version: 5.0.1 PHP Bug Type: Zend Engine 2 problem Bug description: NULL can't be send as argument if type_hinted
Description: ------------ PHP breaks OOB by not accepting null as a proper value for type_hinted argument. In every OO language i know i have the way to dereference non-primitive object to null. Without this, i have to make _very_ big mess in code to make such things work. Reproduce code: --------------- class Foo { } function x(Foo $a, Foo $x) { } $l = new Foo(); x(null, $l); Expected result: ---------------- normal work Actual result: -------------- Fatal error: Argument 1 must not be null in file.php in line 7 -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=30007&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (php4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30007&r=trysnapshot4 Try a CVS snapshot (php5.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30007&r=trysnapshot50 Try a CVS snapshot (php5.1): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30007&r=trysnapshot51 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30007&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30007&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30007&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30007&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30007&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30007&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30007&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30007&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30007&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30007&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30007&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30007&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30007&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30007&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30007&r=float MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30007&r=mysqlcfg
