http://dk2.php.net/manual/en/language.oop5.magic.php

"Example 19.27. Sleep and wakeup"

doesnt return anything from __sleep() - so it should serialize NULL 

(17:59:19) (@Derick) have a __sleep() method?
(17:59:46) (Jippi) yep
(18:00:01) (@Derick) there you go
(18:00:11) (@Derick) you need to return an array from that
(18:00:20) (@Derick) with which properties should be in the serialized array
(18:00:28) (@Derick) if not, I think it doens't serialize it
(18:01:02) (@Derick) heh "Example 1258" isn't very useful :)
(18:01:13) (Jippi) ah, works
(18:02:15) (Jippi) http://dk2.php.net/manual/en/language.oop5.magic.php Example 19.27 doesnt mention anything about returning anything in class Connection though ?
(18:02:17) (@Derick) the docs should mention this though, I suggest to file a doc feature request for "http://no2.php.net/manual/en/language.oop5.magic.php"
(18:02:22) (@Derick) right

Please help up by being more verbose. What sentence do you feel needs to be added in the documentation?
 [2007-02-03 23:03 UTC] derick@php.net 
For example that it doesn't mention that the object is serialized as "NULL" when you don't return anything from __sleep().

No feedback was provided for this bug for over a week, so it is
being suspended automatically. If you are able to provide the

This bug has been fixed in the documentation's XML sources. Since the
online and downloadable versions of the documentation need some time
to get updated, we would like to ask you to be a bit patient.

Thank you for the report, and for helping us make our documentation better.

"If the method doesn't return anything then NULL is serialized and E_NOTICE is issued." Example fixed.
