The following code:
<?php
$dateTime = DateTime::createFromFormat('Y-m-d', '2022-08-26');
$lastErrors = DateTime::getLastErrors();
var_dump($lastErrors);Resulted in this output:
array(4) {
["warning_count"]=>
int(0)
["warnings"]=>
array(0) {
}
["error_count"]=>
int(0)
["errors"]=>
array(0) {
}
}
But I expected this output instead:
bool(false)
Discussion
I'm not sure if this is a documentation issue or a PHP bug.
The documentation says that the return type of DateTime::getLastErrors() is array|false.
array is returned if there are errors and/or warnings, while false is returned if there's no errors nor warnings.
In actuality, false is not returned even when there are no errors/warnings - the array is returned instead, as can be seen in the above example.
Either the documentation needs to be corrected, or if it's correct, the bug needs to be fixed.
