From: kozak at eurosat dot cz Operating system: ALL PHP version: 5.5.3 Package: *General Issues Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Bug description:isset alternative
Description: ------------ At the moment isset call return true only when variable is set and it is not null. But there is no way (or I do not find it so far), how to just test variable for existance. So it will be perfect if there will be some other call (for eg: exist) or some parametr how to get this behaviour More in example. Test script: --------------- $a = null; $testOnlyExistence = true; echo isset($b); // prints false; echo isset($a); // prints false; echo isset($a, $testOnlyExistence); // prints true; echo isset($b, $testOnlyExistence); // prints false; // or echo exist($a); // prints true; echo exist($b); // prints false; -- Edit bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=65652&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.4): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=65652&r=trysnapshot54 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.3): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=65652&r=trysnapshot53 Try a snapshot (trunk): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=65652&r=trysnapshottrunk Fixed in SVN: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=65652&r=fixed Fixed in release: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=65652&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=65652&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=65652&r=needscript Try newer version: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=65652&r=oldversion Not developer issue: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=65652&r=support Expected behavior: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=65652&r=notwrong Not enough info: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=65652&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=65652&r=submittedtwice register_globals: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=65652&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=65652&r=php4 Daylight Savings: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=65652&r=dst IIS Stability: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=65652&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=65652&r=gnused Floating point limitations: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=65652&r=float No Zend Extensions: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=65652&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=65652&r=mysqlcfg
