Description:
------------
The json_encode() function completely ignores, and thus does not
encode,
PHP array entries with an array key that is an empty string: array
(""=>"value");
Empty string array keys and object properties are totally valid PHP and
JSON respectively - they should encode/decode as such.
This, along with the corresponding json_decode() bug of a similar
nature
(41504), are show stoppers for me as I need JSON encode/decode to be
rock solid and consistent.
Thanks for looking into this :-)
Reproduce code:
---------------
1) var_dump(json_encode(array(""=>"value")));
2) var_dump(json_encode(array(""=>"value1", "key2"=>"value2")));
Expected result:
----------------
1) string(15) "{"":"value"}"
2) string(17) "{"":"value1", "key2":"value2"}"
Actual result:
--------------
1) string(2) "{}"
2) string(17) "{"key2":"value2"}"
In both cases the array entry with the empty string key is missing.
This might be addressed by Bug #41034, but may very well be a different
bug.
