Description:
------------
I've a large PHP array (~85000 elements) in a class, on php 5.5 (/usr/bin/php) on my system (mac OS X 10.11) it works as expected (count ~ 86459), but on same system with php 5.6 (php), it fails to lookup few keys because of wrong count (count ~ 20923).

testAds.php prints city name corresponding to ID 1027519, which exists in 2nd file AdwordsCityComponent.php. But doesn't work with different PHP versions.


Test script:
---------------
class AdwordsCityComponent {
  private $adwordsCityObj = 
          array(
1000010=>"Abu Dhabi,Abu Dhabi,United Arab Emirates",
1000011=>"Ajman,Ajman,United Arab Emirates",
// ~80000 more rows....
9062586=>"Bratislava Region,Slovakia",
9062587=>"Trnava Region,Slovakia");

    /**
     * getCityNameById
     */
    public function getCityNameById($adwordsCityObjId) {
        $cityName = "Unspecified";
        $cityArray = $this->adwordsCityObj;

        echo "Total array count : ";
        echo count($this->adwordsCityObj);
        if(array_key_exists($adwordsCityObjId, $cityArray)){
            $cityName = $cityArray[$adwordsCityObjId];
        }
        return $cityName;
    }
}

Duplicate of bug #68057.

Unfortunately this cannot be fixed in 5.6 due to binary BC, but you can work around it by defining the array outside of the class (and then somehow getting it into the class, if you wish).

I feel like this should be documented but I'm not sure where. OOP Changelog? Maybe in the 7.0 migration docs too?

Thanks requinix for your workaround, it works fine.

I'm closing this issue.
