Description:
------------
---
From manual page: http://www.php.net/function.convert-uudecode#refsect1-function.convert-uudecode-returnvalues
---

There is no information about the return value of convert_uudecode when an error occurs. Experimentally, I find out that the function returns FALSE on error.


Test script:
---------------
$result = @convert_uudecode("llllllllllll"); // invalid string
var_dump($result);



Expected result:
----------------
bool(false)

Actual result:
--------------
bool(false)
