PHP Bug Type: Documentation problem
Bug description: {} String offsets raise Strict Standards error, documentation
not updated
Description:
------------
New PHP Strict Standards error as of 5.1.0RC6:
PHP Strict Standards: Usage of {} to access string offsets is deprecated
and will be removed in PHP 6
Yet documentation claims {} should be used and [] are deprecated (see
http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.types.string.php#language.types.string.substr)
1. What should be used now that both [] and {} are deprecated?
2. Please update documentation accordingly
Reproduce code:
---------------
$string = 'abc';
$b = $string{1};
Expected result:
----------------
N/A
Actual result:
--------------
N/A
