#27180 [Opn]: Callback parameters in xml_set_*_handler

ID: 27180 User updated by: drm at melp dot nl Reported By: drm at melp dot nl Status: Open Bug Type: XML related Operating System: Windows XP PHP Version: 4.3.4 New Comment: I'm not sure. The documentation is not quite clear about not passing that type of callback functions to those functions. If the docs would be clear about that, there wouldn't be a problem (imho) Also, a special function 'xml_set_object' is available for this kind of callbacks, so i figured there are no plans on letting xml_set_*_handler functions handle the obj/method callbacks. That's the reason i posted it as a documentation problem. If the dev team would rather consider it a bug, that's even better :) Sorry if that puzzled you.

I suggest the documentation type hints are changed from xml_set_*_handler ( resource, callback, ... ) to xml_set_*_handler ( resource, string ...) since the an array ( ... ) notation for callbacks should be correct according to http://nl.php.net/manual/en/language.pseudo-types.php Note that it does the parsing until some point at the end of the XML document. I can't quite reproduce where exactly it hangs, but i think its the cleaning up part of the parser when the parsing is done (the $final of xml_parse must be true to reproduce this) or you could fix the bug, of course :P Reproduce code: --------------- xml_set_element_handler ( $this->parserResource, array ( &$this, 'startElementHandler' ), array ( &$this, 'endElementHandler' ) ); Expected result: ---------------- don't hang apache ;) Actual result: -------------- hangs apache, (99% cpu), probably an endless loop? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=27180&edit=1
