1.2.1351. Use get_debug_type()¶
get_debug_type() returns the given type of a variable. It was introduced in PHP 8.0: this makes it incompatible with previous versions.
<?php
// From the RFC
throw new TypeError('Expected ' . Foo::class . ' got ' . (is_object($bar) ? get_class($bar) : gettype($bar)));
// Becomes
throw new TypeError('Expected ' . Foo::class . ' got ' . get_debug_type($bar));
?>
See also PHP RFC: get_debug_type.
