Hi,
Slightly off-topic but, as I was looking for the way to add support for
'$str[]=' assignments, I found something strange.
Just for curiosity, does someone know a reason for this :
$str = "abc";
$str[1]="z";
var_dump($str); // -> string(3) "zbc" -> Expected
$str = ""; // Empty string
$str[1]="z";
var_dump($str); // -> array(1) { [0]=>string(1) "z" } -> !!!
The input string is converted to an array if it is empty. This becomes
still funnier with :
$str="a";
$str[] = 'z'; // -> Fatal error : [] operator not supported for strings
$str="";
$str[] = 'z'; // -> OK -> $str gets array(1) { [0]=>string(1) "z" }
Thoughts ?
Regards
François
