Bug description:XPath processing-instruction() function is not supported.
Description:
------------
SimpleXML misses a XPath function which is processing-instruction(). This
last one enables to reach/select PIs along the XML document.
Test script:
---------------
<?php
$xml = '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>' . "\n\n" .
'<foo>' . "\n" .
' <bar>Gordon</bar>' . "\n" .
' <bar><![CDATA[Gordon]]></bar>' . "\n" .
' <bar><?baz href="ftw" ?></bar>' . "\n" .
'</foo>';
$sxe = simplexml_load_string($xml);
var_dump(
$sxe->xpath('//bar')
);
var_dump(
$sxe->xpath('//processing-instruction(\'baz\')')
);
Expected result:
----------------
//bar
array(3) {
[0]=>
object(SimpleXMLElement)#2 (1) {
[0]=>
string(6) "Gordon"
}
[1]=>
object(SimpleXMLElement)#3 (0) {
}
[2]=>
object(SimpleXMLElement)#4 (1) {
["baz"]=>
object(SimpleXMLElement)#5 (0) {
}
}
}
//processing-instruction('baz')
array(1) {
[2]=>
object(SimpleXMLElement)#6 (1) {
â¦
}
}
Actual result:
--------------
//bar
array(3) {
[0]=>
object(SimpleXMLElement)#2 (1) {
[0]=>
string(6) "Gordon"
}
[1]=>
object(SimpleXMLElement)#3 (0) {
}
[2]=>
object(SimpleXMLElement)#4 (1) {
["baz"]=>
object(SimpleXMLElement)#5 (0) {
}
}
}
//processing-instruction('baz')
array(0) {
}
