From: marcos dot neves at gmail dot com Operating system: any PHP version: 5.1.0b3 PHP Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Bug description: make array a traversable
Description: ------------ Traversable is an internal interface that says "I can be used in a foreach". Since array can be used too, would be nice if array be accepted internally in parameters that expect traversable. Reproduce code: --------------- <? function acceptArray(array $t) { echo "\n".__FUNCTION__."\n"; foreach($t as $k=>$v) { echo "$k=>$v\n"; } } function acceptTraversable(Traversable $t) { echo "\n".__FUNCTION__."\n"; foreach($t as $k=>$v) { echo "$k=>$v\n"; } } $test = array("is", "array", "traversable", "too", "?"); acceptArray($test); // ok acceptTraversable(new ArrayIterator($test)); // ok acceptTraversable($test); // would be nice ?> Expected result: ---------------- acceptTraversable($test); shoud accept an array, since it's too a Traversable structure(can be used in a foreach). Actual result: -------------- Fatal error: Argument 1 must be an object of class Traversable -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=33891&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (php4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33891&r=trysnapshot4 Try a CVS snapshot (php5.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33891&r=trysnapshot50 Try a CVS snapshot (php5.1): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33891&r=trysnapshot51 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33891&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33891&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33891&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33891&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33891&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33891&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33891&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33891&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33891&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33891&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33891&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33891&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33891&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33891&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33891&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33891&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33891&r=mysqlcfg
