PropertyMapper cannot map with array in phpdoc about jsonmapper

[DannyvdSluijs]

Thanks for the detailed info and taking the time to report the bug.

I can see how this is an issue in the PropertyMapper. It seems the later checks for single (scalar) value does not look at the value to see if it was an array and as a result eagerly assumes the first type (single string) is correct and applies a cast to string.

Would be able to create a PR with a unit test that shows the bug and a fix for the problem?

I could take a look but I'm running a bit behind on other things so it might take some time to get this fixed.

Alternatively as a (quick and dirty) workaround you could swap the phpdoc type declaration to string[]|string this might doe the trick in order for you to continue.

hi @DannyvdSluijs
for the current project I did of course the "switch". My php-cs-fixer is reverting it everytime ;-), so I was searching for a permanent solution.

I will see if I have some time to add at least a unit test for this bugfix
