Bug #67641 [Nab]: SoapFault Traversable ?

Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=67641&edit=1 ID: 67641 User updated by: vosa at binaryparadise dot com Reported by: vosa at binaryparadise dot com Summary: SoapFault Traversable ? Status: Not a bug Type: Bug Package: SOAP related Operating System: debian PHP Version: Irrelevant Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: Your link about object iterations says: "By default, all visible properties will be used for the iteration." "faultstring" and "faultcode" are NOT visible (or documented) properties. Developers don't want to search "in a few places", but in official PHP reference. I think it's not much work to write few words in documentation about this "feature". Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2014-07-17 19:29:36] requinix@php.net Objects that are not Traversable can still be iterated over using a default behavior: the set of accessible properties and their values. http://php.net/manual/en/language.oop5.iterations.php As mentioned in a few places, SoapFault has undocumented properties "faultstring" and "faultcode". Adding that to the default foreach behavior results in the output you see. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2014-07-17 11:50:12] vosa at binaryparadise dot com Description: ------------ --- From manual page: http://www.php.net/class.soapfault --- There's strange behavior of SoapFault instance when used in foreach construct. It behave almost like Transversable object, but it shouldn't. SoapFault extends Exception and none of these classes implements Transversable interface... Test script: --------------- print "Exception:\n"; foreach(new Exception('message') as $k => $v) print "$k: $v\n"; print "SoapFault:\n"; foreach(new Soapfault('faultcode', 'faultstring') as $k => $v) print "$k: $v\n"; Expected result: ---------------- Exception: SoapFault: Actual result: -------------- Exception: SoapFault: faultstring: faultstring faultcode: faultcode ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=67641&edit=1
