ID: 43596 User updated by: robin_fernandes at uk dot ibm dot com Reported By: robin_fernandes at uk dot ibm dot com Status: Open Bug Type: Arrays related Operating System: Windows PHP Version: 5.3CVS-2007-12-14 (snap) New Comment:
Hi msaraujo, thanks for looking at this. Just to ensure there is no confusion: the purpose of this report is to notify of a change in behaviour at least in the php 5.3 / 6.0 snaps. We agree that php 5.2.5 outputs array(0) { }, and I believe that is the correct output. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-01-25 20:16:48] [EMAIL PROTECTED] I have tried with 5.2.5 and actual result is: array(0) { } ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-12-15 07:36:47] robin_fernandes at uk dot ibm dot com Hi Felipe, thanks for the update. I understand and agree with the documented case in which the argument is omitted. However, in the case described above, it is not omitted, but rather explicitly provided as 0. If this change in behaviour is intentional, I think the documentation will need to be updated. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-12-14 21:46:28] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Seeing the code, we note that is intentional, and according to documentation: "If it is omitted, then the sequence will have everything from offset up until the end of the array." Seems to be right. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-12-14 18:59:45] [EMAIL PROTECTED] In PHP 5.3.0-dev (cli) (built: Dec 11 2007 13:57:26) returns: array(0) { } ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-12-14 14:54:38] robin_fernandes at uk dot ibm dot com First line should read "With php5.2.x, explicitly specifying a $length argument of 0 would result in an array of length 0" - sorry. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
