BcMathFloatOperand

warning native off by default

Group: Probable bugs

Supply decimal strings before BCMath arithmetic. This inspection is disabled by default; enabling it selects the stated policy.

Example

<?php
$x = bcadd(0.15 + 0.25, '0', 8);

Reported:

• line 2: Supply decimal strings before BCMath arithmetic.

Detection

• A resolved bcadd, bcsub, bcmul, bcdiv, bcmod, bcpow, bccomp or bcsqrt receives a proven float operand. Enabling this rule establishes a decimal-exact-input policy; integers and decimal strings are excluded.
• Resolve builtin functions, extension classes, constants and method receivers, including aliases and supported named arguments. Inspect reachable operations in one lexical scope with bounded local flow.
• Emit one finding per violating operation. Never infer policy from names or comments. When the proof is inconclusive, nothing is reported.

Exceptions (no report)

• Exclude shadowed or unresolved symbols, incomplete code, unknown required constants, ambiguous receiver identity and unsupported versions. Reassignment, escaping aliases, and unknown calls invalidate dependent flow facts.
• Both @custos-ignore BcMathFloatOperand and @noinspection BcMathFloatOperand suppress this native rule.

Fix

None. A safe repair requires choosing values, error handling, or application behavior.

PHP versions

Apply throughout PHP 5.3–8.5 only where the extension API and syntax exist. Do not flag API unavailability through this rule. Invalid-input error forms vary by PHP version; the BCMath operand contract is unchanged.

Options

None. Use normal rule configuration to enable or disable the inspection.

Configure

In custos.json:

{
  "rules": {
    "BcMathFloatOperand": {
      "enabled": true
    }
  }
}

Suppress

Before the statement or declaration (or the first statement of the file):

// @custos-ignore BcMathFloatOperand
