PHP Notice: Array to string conversion only on PHP 7

Viewed 16910

I am a newbie of PHP. I study it from php.net, but I found a problem today.

class foo {
    var $bar = 'I am bar.';
}

$foo = new foo();
$bar = 'bar';
$baz = array('foo', 'bar', 'baz', 'quux');
echo "{$foo->$bar}\n";
echo "{$foo->$baz[1]}\n";

The documentation(http://php.net/manual/en/language.types.string.php) say that the above example will output:

I am bar.
I am bar.

But I get the different output run on my PC(PHP 7):

I am bar.
<b>Notice</b>:  Array to string conversion in ... on line <b>9</b><br />
<b>Notice</b>:  Undefined property: foo::$Array in ... on line <b>9</b><br />

Why?
