In reference to bug #29029 (http://bugs.php.net/29029):
Current casting object behaviour:
int - not able to cast
dobule - notice thrown, returns 1.0
null - will return null
bool - returns 1 (from result of double)
string - user __toString() if applicable or 'Object'
Beyond the ridiculous idea of adding a __toInt(), __toDouble()..
etc. What about the idea that casting int so that it returns the
id of the object, and the double value returns the int casted as a
double value. So:
$o1 = new stdClass();
$o2 = new stdClass();
$o3 = new stdClass();
var_dump((int) $o1); /* 1 /
var_dump((double) $o2); / 2.0 /
var_dump((int) $o3); / 3 */
Otherwise, I'll just move this over as a documentation problem.

First, let me assure you that this is not one of those shady pyramid schemes
you've been hearing about. No, sir. Our model is the trapezoid!
Please check the archives to see why we don't support object casts to
integers/doubles.
Hint: The object id is not unique.

Yeah i checked there, I always get frustrated with to many results
over there :) I'll research that again now that I know there has to
be something there.
Thanks!
