ID: 46373 User updated by: phpbugs at sevenlight dot com Reported By: phpbugs at sevenlight dot com Status: Bogus Bug Type: Scripting Engine problem Operating System: OSX 10.5.5 PHP Version: 5.3CVS-2008-10-23 (snap) New Comment:
Can nobody provide any assistance? I realize I cannot provide a small test-case script, but that is because this exact same script works fine in the smaller test cases. I am looking for any advice as to how I can help track down the cause of this bug. If I need to add some debugging code to the PHP source and recompile, or something else, I'm willing to do this, I just need some guidance. I've covered the extent of what I can come up with to test out inside my PHP code itself, and the bug is at the point where I feel that it would need some modifications to the PHP code for debugging purposes, but I have no experience in debugging the PHP C code. I can get around debugging C, but not debugging PHP in C. I know your job is impossible without a test case, but please give me some help in getting you a test case. The bug is obviously not simple enough that a 10 line test case will trigger it (although maybe it can, but I don't know how to yet). Thank you, -Andrew Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-10-23 20:54:21] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-10-23 18:50:07] phpbugs at sevenlight dot com Description: ------------ Using a type-hint with a namespace does not work. It allows an object of a different class to be passed, and even allows a bogus namespace to be used. It will also allow null variables, and will pass through any value, no matter what class type-hinting you use. Unfortunately, in my simplest test cases I have not been able to reproduce it, it is only in my larger project that it causes this problem. I really don't know where to start with this, and how to duplicate it. Needless to say, have provided the failing code from my project. The entire project is several thousand lines of code. And I've really done my best to track down the problem, even using the 5.3-alpha3-dev. I'll include the code that causes the problem. I really don't know what's wrong, and why it is doing it. Any hints as to what I might be able to do to try to reproduce this in a simpler way would be nice, but I really don't know where to go from here. Reproduce code: --------------- <?php namespace MyNamespace; class MyClass { // execute public function execute() { $this->test(NULL); return $this->_execute($this->_mc); } protected function test(MyBogusNamespace::MyBogusClass $m) { $reflect = new ReflectionClass(get_class($this)); $method = $reflect->getMethod('test'); echo $method; var_export($m); echo "\n\nClass: " . get_class($m) . " == MyBogusNamespace::MyBogusClass\n\n"; } } ?> Expected result: ---------------- Catchable fatal error: Argument 1 passed to MyNamespace::MyClass::test() must be an instance of MyBogusNamespace::MyBogusClass, null given, called in /srv/www/test/ns/new.php on line 9 and defined in /srv/www/test/ns/new.php on line 13 Actual result: -------------- Method [ <user> protected method test ] { @@ /srv/spin/spin4/spinnaker/extender/universal/tablelibrary.php 73 - 80 - Parameters [1] { Parameter #0 [ <required> MyBogusNamespace::MyBogusClass $m ] } } NULL == MyBogusNamespace::MyBogusClass ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=46373&edit=1
