#36226 [NoF->Opn]: Inconsistent handling when passing potential arrays.

ID: 36226 Updated by: lsmith@php.net Reported By: say_ten at multiplay dot co dot uk -Status: No Feedback +Status: Open Bug Type: SOAP related Operating System: FreeBSD 6.0-p4 PHP Version: 5.1.2 Assigned To: dmitry New Comment: Ah ok .. I finally had the genius idea of searching the existing test cases for one that covers my issues. Since I am a phpt n00b, I ripped the code instead of simply updating the test case. The code should be similar enough for you to recognize from the test case for Bug #36226.

I did a minor change to the wsdl to allow nillable for the sequence.

Would be nice to have that one fixed for php 5.2.2.

So the issue is that I end up with an array(null) for logOnEvent instead of simply null.

I cannot imagine the situation when ext/soap will return array(null) for unexisting XML elements. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-02-08 15:32:19] lsmith@php.net Enabling this feature seems to result in giving me an array(null) if I have a nill'ed sequence. Not sure if this is why you originally introduced the feature of not returning single element sequences as array's, but I was hoping to get an empty array in the above case. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-02-02 12:42:40] dmitry@php.net This is not a bug but feature. I stayed the default behavior unchanged, but added ability to create arrays even if only one element exists. To create arrays with single element, you should use special option in SoapServer/SoapClient constructor. $x = new SoapClient($wsdl, array('features' => SOAP_SINGLE_ELEMENT_ARRAYS)); Fixed in CVS HEAD and PHP_5_1. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-01-31 15:45:34] tony2001@php.net Assigned to the maintainer. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
