PHP Bug Type: Zend Engine 2 problem
Bug description: Undefined variables cause type hints to become useless
Description:
------------
If you pass an undefined variable as the value of a type-hinted argument,
the type-hint checking appears to be skipped. Rather, a notice error is
printed for the undefined variable (as it should be) and the function or
method happily continues on.
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
class Foo
{
}
function myFunc($param1, Foo $bar)
{
echo $param1;
}
myFunc('This is a test',$badVariable);
?>
Expected result:
----------------
"Notice: Undefined variable: badVariable in foo.php on line 11
Fatal error: Argument 2 must be an object of class foo in foo.php on line
6"
Actual result:
--------------
"Notice: Undefined variable: badVariable in foo.php on line 11
This is a test"
