[1] <https://wiki.php.net/rfc/howto> Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-04-06 17:39:32] sites at hubmed dot org Description: ------------ Somewhere within the SoapClient and libxml code are functions that a) parse an XSD schema into a set of data types (available through SoapClient::__gettypes), and b) apply that schema to an XML document to produce a native PHP object. Would it be possible to make these functions available to all DOMDocument objects, so that an XML document returned from a non-SOAP web service can be bound - using the schema - to a native PHP object? (related, existing functions include xmlrpc_decode, wddx_unserialize, XSLTProcessor::transformToDoc and DOMDocument::schemaValidate) Test script: --------------- // load the XSD Schema $dom = new DOMDocument; $dom->load('example.xsd'); // import the schema to a SchemaBinder class, similar to XSLTProcessor::importStylesheet $binder = new SchemaBinder; $binder->importSchema($dom); // load the XML document $dom = new DOMDocument; $dom->load('example.xml'); // bind the XML document to a native PHP object, using the schema $data = $binder->bind($dom); =========================== /* or more simply */ $data = $dom->bindFromSchema('example.xsd'); ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=51488&edit=1
