Req #80120 [NEW]: ForEach() backwards support?

From: divinity76 at gmail dot com Operating system: PHP version: Next Minor Version Package: *General Issues Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Bug description:ForEach() backwards support? Description: ------------ There are situations where one want to iterate a list backwards, I was recently in such a situation, writing: <?php $removeWhitespaceTextNodes = function (\DOMNode $node) use (&$removeWhitespaceTextNodes): void { if ($node->hasChildNodes()) { // Warning: it's important to do it backwards; if you do it forwards, the index for DOMNodeList might become invalidated; // that's why i don't use ForEach() - don't change it (unless you know what you're doing, ofc) for ($i = $node->childNodes->length - 1; $i >= 0; --$i) { $removeWhitespaceTextNodes($node->childNodes->item($i)); } } if ($node->nodeType === XML_TEXT_NODE && !$node->hasChildNodes() && !$node->hasAttributes() && (strlen(trim($node->textContent)) === 0)) { $node->parentNode->removeChild($node); } }; ?> I think it could be useful if ForEach() could iterate stuff backwards, maybe something like: <?php ForEach($iterable as $index=>$val, $flags = 0){} ?> (with a new FOREACH_BACKWARDS flag) or maybe just <?php ForEach($iterable as $index=>$val, bool $backwards = false){} ?> or something like that? -- Edit bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=80120&edit=1 -- Fix committed: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=80120&r=fixed Fixed in release: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=80120&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=80120&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=80120&r=needscript Try newer version: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=80120&r=oldversion Not developer issue: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=80120&r=support Expected behavior: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=80120&r=notwrong Not enough info: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=80120&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=80120&r=submittedtwice register_globals: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=80120&r=globals PHP version support discontinued: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=80120&r=phptooold Daylight Savings: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=80120&r=dst IIS Stability: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=80120&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=80120&r=gnused Floating point limitations: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=80120&r=float No Zend Extensions: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=80120&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=80120&r=mysqlcfg
