SimpleXML does not appear to mix very well with sessions. Casting the values explicitly solves this
problem.
This does NOT work and will yield errors if Foo is used in a session (i.e. you do a
$_SESSION['foo']=new Foo();):
<?php
class Foo {
public bar;
function __construct() {
$xml = simplexml_load_file('bar.xml');
$this->bar=$xml->something->bar;
}
}
?>
However, by adding an explicit cast, things work just fine:
<?php
class Foo {
public bar;
function __construct() {
$xml = simplexml_load_file('bar.xml');
$this->bar=(string)$xml->something->bar;
}
}
?>
The above is true for PHP 5.0.4 - no guarantees for other versions.
