Bug #68946 [NEW]: simplexml_load_string() result depends on formatting of xml string
From: danielhintermann at yahoo dot de
Operating system: Windows
PHP version: 5.6.5
Package: SimpleXML related
Bug Type: Bug
Bug description:simplexml_load_string() result depends on formatting of xml string
Description:
------------
First, the bug could also be triggered on PHP version 5.3.28 on
windows.
Secondly, it could be related to the issue Bug #61335.
Depending on formatting of a xml string the comparing with '== false'
gives different result. It is clear that the === operator should be
used, however, the == operator still should give consistent results!
Test script:
---------------
<?php
class TestComparisonOperator extends PHPUnit_Framework_TestCase {
public function testWithoutSpaceFormat() {
$oXml = simplexml_load_string($this->getXmlNoFormatting());
var_dump($oXml);
$this->assertFalse($oXml == false);
}
public function testWithSpaceFormat() {
$oXml = simplexml_load_string($this->getXmlWithSpaceFormat());
var_dump($oXml);
$this->assertFalse($oXml == false);
}
private function getXmlNoFormatting()
{
return "<?BrightCloud
version=bcap/1.1?><bcap><seqnum>1</seqnum></bcap>";
}
private function getXmlWithSpaceFormat()
{
// look at the space after bcap tag!
return "<?BrightCloud version=bcap/1.1?><bcap>
<seqnum>1</seqnum></bcap>";
}
}
