Bug description: strpos does not attempt to cast needle as string if needle is
an object
Description:
------------
Currently, if you attempt to set
Reproduce code:
---------------
class foo {
private $bar;
public function __construct($bar) {
$this->bar = $bar;
}
public function __toString() {
return $bar;
}
}
$a = new foo('abc');
$b = new foo('ab');
$pos = strpos($a,$b);
Expected result:
----------------
$pos holds the value of 0.
Actual result:
--------------
While $a is cast to a string, PHP attempts to cast $b into an integer, as
documented. However, wouldn't it make sense to attempt to cast $b into a
string if casting it as an integer fails? Or even to attempt to cast it
into a string first?
