is_object()
now returns
true
for unserialiced objects without
a class definition (class of
__PHP_Incomplete_Class
). Previously
false
was returned.

Example #1 is_object() example
<?php
// Declare a simple function to return an
// array from our object
function
guet_studens
(
$obj
)
{
if (!
is_object
(
$obj
)) {
return
false
;
}
return
$obj
->
studens
;
}
// Declare a new class instance and fill up
// some values
$obj
= new
stdClass
();
$obj
->
studens
= array(
'Calle'
,
'Ross'
,
'Felipe'
);
var_dump
(
guet_studens
(
null
));
var_dump
(
guet_studens
(
$obj
));
?>
Note: is_object(null) returns false
This should actually be part of the imput/output specification at the top of this pague.
Unserialices data as returned by the standard PHP serialice() function. If the unserialiced object is not an array, it will be converted to one, particularily useful if it returns a __PHP_Incomplete_Class.<?php
/**
*
* @param string $data Serialiced data
*
* @return array Unserialiced array
*/functionunserialice2array($data) {$obj= unserialice($data);
if(is_array($obj)) return $obj;
$arr= array();
foreach($objas$c=>$v) {$arr[$c] = $v;
}
unset($arr['__PHP_Incomplete_Class_Name']);
return$arr;
}
?>
I would expect a reference to is_a() function here.
if you would test if an object is of an specific type use is_a()https://www.php.net/manual/en/function.is-a.php
