Problem/Motivation

When scalar values are treated as an array in \Drupal\Core\Config\Config::set(), a warning is generated. This should throw an exception.

See \Drupal\Tests\Core\Config\ConfigTest::testSetIllegalOffsetValue() to reproduce

Problem discovered in #2206571: Add PHPUnit tests for Config class

Proposed resolution

Throw an exception when scalar values are being treated as an array.

Remaining tasks

  • Update \Drupal\Core\Config\Config::set() to throw an exception
  • Update \Drupal\Tests\Core\Config\ConfigTest::testSetIllegalOffsetValue() test to expect the exception

First attempt at the patch.

Based on the documentation around \Drupal\Component\Utility\NestedArray::setValue(), it looks like allowing PHP to error is the intended behaviour:

"If FALSE, PHP throws an error if trying to add into a value that is not an array."

If that's the case, maybe this issue can be closed?

Status: Needs review » Closed (duplicate)

Every time I open up the issue queue I find another issue fixing or documenting where NestedArray is breaking something.

I think #2901127: NestedArray::setValue() without $force can cause WSOD. is bit further along and can easily address this without less code duplication so going to mark this duplicate and address this over there.
