Description:
------------
There are three different ways objects are converted to strings and
they are inconsistent (depends on what function you are using). I think
all object-to-string conversions should be done via __toString() if it
is defined, even if the object is in quotes.
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
class Message {
function __toString() {
return "Hello, World!\n";
}
}
$w = new Message;
echo("$w");
echo("Message: " . $w);
echo(substr($w,0));
echo($w);
Expected result:
----------------
Hello, World!
Message: Hello, World!
Hello, World!
Hello, World!
Actual result:
--------------
Object id #1
Message: Object id #1
Object
Hello, World!
