To match the behavior of substr() and mb_substr() in PHP 7, iconv_substr() has been fixed as of PHP 7.0.11 (see bug #72320 and <https://3v4l.org/qhP6H>). This has not been documented, however.

I think this is a different case to #72320, I test this code both in 7.0.13 and 7.1.0. All of the 2 version failed.

This is not a different case as #72320, but rather due to fixing #72320, the behavior has changed in PHP 7.0.11.

Thank you for the information, should I think this is not a bug now, it just not been document. So I can trust the new behavior ?

[2016-12-07 15:08 UTC] cmb@php.net

I have already committed the respective changes to the documentation: <http://svn.php.net/viewvc/?view=revision&amp;revision=341328>. It will take a while until this commit is rolled out to the PHP manual on all mirrors, though.

Thank you for updating the documentation.
