In latest CVS given proper string casts the code returns the expected:

string(6) ""test""
output.

Ok, the problem: I have a SimpleXML object that I want to convert to
JSON using json_encode(). According to the manual, json_encode() works
on all types.
As soon as there is CDATA in the XML, that very node shows up as "" in
the JSON encoding. Remove the CDATA section, everything works. Thus I
claim that json_encode() does not work properly on CDATA, which I
consider a bug.

Johannes, would you please care to actually *read* and try to
*understand* my bug report before marking it as bogus?
My point is that json_encode() works properly with nested XML, but does
NOT work correctly when the nested XML contains CDATA.

$xml and (string)$xml are different things. Using different things as
arguments for a function gives different results.

I re-opened the bug due to the discussion of bug #42001. json_encode()
does not work on nested XML with a string cast, but it does work without
a string cast. (Of course except for the CDATA problem that made me file
this bug in the first place.)
$xml = new SimpleXMLElement('<?xml version="1.0"
encoding="UTF-8"?><test><sub>test</sub><another>value</another><path><to
><tag>something</tag></to></path></test>');
var_dump(json_encode($xml));
var_dump(json_encode((string) $xml));
$xml = new SimpleXMLElement('<?xml version="1.0"
encoding="UTF-8"?><test><sub><![CDATA[test]]></sub><another>value</anoth
er><path><to><tag>something</tag></to></path></test>');
var_dump(json_encode($xml));
var_dump(json_encode((string) $xml));
