From: Operating system: all PHP version: Irrelevant Package: *General Issues Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Bug description:$var = NULL; isset($var) return FALSE
Description: ------------ --- >From manual page: http://www.php.net/function.isset#Description --- if valid variable $var with NULL value passed to isset(), result is FALSE. There should be language reserved word/language construct that behaves exactly like isset() except for NULL value. behavior of isset should be changed in future major release, optionally configurable by ini setting. If I create patch, do you include it? Note that if I'll go implement this, compatible behavior will be preserved. Test script: --------------- if(isset($var)) die('ERROR'); else echo "OK\n"; $var = null; if(!isset($var)) die('NOT GOOD. THIS IS UNCLEAR AND STRANGE'); else echo "THIS IS BETTER\n"; unset($var); if(isset($var)) die('ERROR'); else echo "OK\n"; Expected result: ---------------- OK THIS IS BETTER OK Actual result: -------------- OK NOT GOOD.
