Declare(strict_types=1) vs error_reporting(-1)

[rpkamp]

@John_Betong

I am surprised and look forward to discovering when error_reporting(…) succeeds and declare(…) fails.

<?php
declare(strict_types=1);

error_reporting(0);

echo substr(new stdclass(), 0, 1);

Just declaring strict types here doesn’t help, because substr is not defined in the current file, so strict doesn’t apply to it

@John_Betong

No doubt it won’t take long because my scripts usually need a great deal of error correcting

Sounds like you should start unit testing
