Req #53493 [NEW]: xmlrpc_decode should not be sensitive to leading whitespace

From: Operating system: Ubuntu 10.04 LTS Server PHP version: 5.3.3 Package: XMLRPC-EPI related Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Bug description:xmlrpc_decode should not be sensitive to leading whitespace Description: ------------ My version of PHP is PHP 5.3.2-1ubuntu4.5. I did some upgrades a few hours/days back and I noticed that my XMLRPC responses are decoded as NULL by the xmlrpc_decode() function. As I experimented around this function, I found that it is sensitive to leading whitespace. When leading whitespace is present (a newline in my case), xmlrpc_decode() returns NULL. When ltrim() is used on the string before passed into xmlrpc_decode(), output is alright. Presence of whitespace present at the end of the string does not have any effect. Summary: xmlrpc_decode() is sensitive to leading whitespace and it should not be. --- From manual page: http://www.php.net/function.xmlrpc-decode#Description --- -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=53493&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.2): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53493&r=trysnapshot52 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.3): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53493&r=trysnapshot53 Try a snapshot (trunk): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53493&r=trysnapshottrunk Fixed in SVN: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53493&r=fixed Fixed in SVN and need be documented: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53493&r=needdocs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53493&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53493&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53493&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53493&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53493&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53493&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53493&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53493&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53493&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53493&r=php4 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53493&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53493&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53493&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53493&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53493&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53493&r=mysqlcfg
