Hi there
I just tried to switch from 5.1 to 5.2.3 and got thrown off right away by:
"Object of class MyObject could not be converted to string"
I googled a bit and also read any Messages in the internals list but
couldn't find a decisive answer as to wether this will stay this way or not.
In the "PHP 5 Bug Summary Report" I found Bug # 40799
"change string conversion behaviour for objects not implementing
__toString()"
which is still open. I don't want to complain or anything but I'd like
to know wether it's feasible to wait for a change in this current,
modified, behaviour or if it's going to stay this way.
I used the previous behaviour mostly for debugging purposes where I
wanted to get a visual (string) handle for any given object, which helps
ALOT when trying to figure out wether one has a copy or the original and
wether to references point to the same object....(obj1 === obj2 is not
always helpful). Is there any other way than casting an object to a
string to get an objects #ID?
Thanks for your time.
Lars
