Why doesn't PHP parse the 'null', 'true', 'false', etc into their

Use the third parameter so the orignal values wil not get converted
(still strings though)
Besides that are you sure there are no whitespaces behind the ini
values?
var_dump(
parse_ini_file('./foo.ini', true, INI_SCANNER_RAW)
);
array(1) {
[examples]=
array(11) {
[1]=
string(40) intkey
[nullvalue]=
string(32) null
[truebool]=
string(33) TRUE
[falsebool]=
string(32) false
[intvalue]=
string(33) -1
[floatvalue]=
string(31) +1.4E-3
[stringvalue]=
string(30) Hello World
[quoted]=
string(35) Hello World
[apostrophed]=
string(30) 'Hello World'
[quoted escaped]=
string(27) it work's \fine\!
[apostrophed escaped]=
string(22) 'it work\'s fine!'
}

Maybe I'm missing something, but i thought that's what the constants
evaluated to
In a sloppy way that is accurate, but not sufficient for my needs.
If ($nullvalue)
If ($truebool) ...
But to be more accurate,
$nullvalue != is_null($nullvalue)
$truebool != is_bool($truebool)
$truebool !== TRUE
Etc...
There are subtle but significant differences
