 New Comment:

because it is nowhere documented, but typemap to_xml needs a valid xml string, otherwise it will
silently do nothing

there is my fixed example

function toXSDDate(?DateTimeInterface $dateTime) : ?string
{
  return '<a>' . $dateTime->format(DateTimeInterface::ATOM) .
'</a>';
}

The Bug still exist to this day in PHP 8.2+



my current workaround is using the typemap option for SOAP Client:


    protected static array $typeMap = [
        [
            "type_ns"  => "h**p://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema", 
            "type_name" => "date",
            "to_xml"    => [self::class, 'toXSDDate']
        ]
    ];


    /**
     * SOAP Bug with Datetime https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=44383
     *
     * @param DateTimeInterface|null $dateTime
     * @return string|null
     */
    public static function toXSDDate(?DateTimeInterface $dateTime): ?string
    {
        if (is_null($dateTime)) {
            return null;
        }
        return $dateTime->format(DateTimeInterface::ATOM);
    }

This still seems to be an issue with PHP 7, regardless of OS. Has there been any progress so far?
This bug does make it impossible to properly work with the SOAP package if the API one is working
with requires proper xsd:dateTime values.

Is there at least a workaround for this?  As it stands, if the remote API expects an xsd:dateTime, 
my only option is a different language?

Please fix this issue, prefer the example from  thomas dot lallement at 9online dot fr. Optional or
not optional I don't care.
