You're talking about hypothetical code, but I am talking about actual code that worked fine but no longer works after an upgrade. Perhaps it was poorly written, but it was not buggy.
I can't think of a single time that I've seen a bug exposed by language changes. I have seen dozens of bugs created by language changes, however. (Mostly crashes).
- wvenable 6y agoIf you're depending on very weird edge cases in PHP I'd consider that buggy even if it works.
- john-shaffer 6y agoThis is a completely useless discussion if you're going to assume that code depends on "very weird edge cases" with no idea of what the code actually does.
- wvenable 6y agoYou're welcome to post an example.
