Bug #54973 [NEW]: SimpleXML casts intergers wrong.
From:
Operating system: Linux
PHP version: 5.3.6
Package: SimpleXML related
Bug Type: Bug
Bug description:SimpleXML casts intergers wrong.
Description:
------------
When an XML node value is an integer SimpleXML always casts it to an int,
even if its a float or double.
Test script:
---------------
<?php
$xml =
simplexml_load_string("<xml><number>214748364800</number></xml>");
echo $xml->number . "\n"; // the proper number
$int = $xml->number / 1024 / 1024 / 1024; // initial cast to an int causes
problems
echo $int . "\n";
$double = (double) $xml->number / 1024 / 1024 / 1024; // hard cast to a
double fixes it
echo $double . "\n";
?>
Expected result:
----------------
214748364800
200
200
Actual result:
--------------
214748364800
1.9999999990687
200
