Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not
a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at
http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report
a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php

But what for is the Notice if I call setType explicitely?

I understand `echo $array;` raising a Notice, but setType()?

Ciao,
Michael
