This changes
ini_set()
to accept all scalar types (string|int|float|bool|null
) for the new value. The idea here is that while the INI system ultimately works with strings, its value interpretation is designed to be consistent with PHP's casting rules, e.g."1"
and""
are interpreted as boolean true and false respectively.I personally believe that writing
ini_set('precision', 10)
makes more sense thanini_set('precision', '10')
, and findstrict_types
to be unnecessarily pedantic here.
