Description:
------------
---
From manual page: http://www.php.net/function.get-class-vars#refsect1-function.get-class-vars-returnvalues
---

the documentation should report that in the event that the function 'get_class_vars' is not passed a valid class name, then the function returns false.

Test script:
---------------
<?php

get_class_vars('nonexistantclass'); // returns false
get_class_vars('stdClass'); // returns empty array

?>

Same applies to `get_parent_class`. The documentation mentions about returning `FALSE`, but in different cases.

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.
