Operating system: Freebsd + windows
PHP version: 5.2.4
PHP Bug Type: SimpleXML related
Bug description: Invalid type casting ?
Description:
------------
Calculations on values got from a simplexml object dont work as expected.
String values looking as float seems to be casted as integers
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
$objXML = new SimpleXMLElement('<test x="-123.45"></test>');
//Shows correctly
echo $objXML['x']."\n";
//We loose the decimals
echo $objXML['x'] + $objXML['x']."\n";
//This works if we cast the amounts
echo (float)$objXML['x'] + (float)$objXML['x']."\n";
//Calculated on a string, no problem
echo "-123.45" + "-123.45";
?>
Expected result:
----------------
-123.45
-246.9
-246.9
-246.9
Actual result:
--------------
-123.45
-246
-246.9
-246.9
