Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=48717&edit=1 ID: 48717 Comment by: perske at uni-muenster dot de Reported by: rob at zcore dot org Summary: Cannot pass datatype long (> 2147483647) in SOAP requests Status: Open Type: Bug Package: SOAP related Operating System: Debian GNU/Linux PHP Version: 5.2.11 Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: Even if you pass a huge integer as a string it is mixed up. Reason: PHP 5.6.23, file ext/soap/php_encoding.c, function to_xml_long: Line 1118: if (Z_TYPE(tmp) != IS_LONG) { convert_to_long(&tmp); } convert_to_string(&tmp); If a string is passed, it should not be converted to long and back to string loosing precision with very long integers.

Pierre, one serious notice is, that we changed the wsdl for <options> from xsd:long to xsd:string and the problem is still there. Do we have here an auto-casting from string to long? Any ideas? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-10-27 20:15:57] pajoye@php.net PHP on windows uses 32bit integer for long, always. That's not possible to fix easily either. Two choices, either convert to double when an integer overflow happens, or wait until we have big integer support. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
