Operating system: Linux
PHP version: 5.0.1
PHP Bug Type: Zend Engine 2 problem
Bug description: NULL can't be send as argument if type_hinted
Description:
------------
PHP breaks OOB by not accepting null as a proper value for type_hinted
argument.
In every OO language i know i have the way to dereference non-primitive
object to null. Without this, i have to make _very_ big mess in code to
make such things work.
Reproduce code:
---------------
class Foo {
}
function x(Foo $a, Foo $x) {
}
$l = new Foo();
x(null, $l);
Expected result:
----------------
normal work
Actual result:
--------------
Fatal error: Argument 1 must not be null in file.php in line 7
