Bug description:BC: in PHP 5.4 empty() reports true for simplexmlelement
Description:
------------
When laoding XML into SimpleXMLElement and iterating with ->children()
empty() reports true for SimpleXMLElement objects.
In PHP 5.3.16 empty() returns false.
In PHP 5.4.5 empty() returns true.
Test script:
---------------
$xml = <<<EOT
<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<Y><X>6098881</X></Y>
EOT;
$sxml = new SimpleXMLElement($xml);
foreach ($sxml->children() as $xmlKey => $xmlNode) {
var_dump(
empty($xmlNode), (string) $xmlNode, $xmlNode->asxml()
);
}
$xmlNode = new SimpleXMLElement('<X>501936634a721</X>');
var_dump(
empty($xmlNode), (string) $xmlNode, $xmlNode->asxml()
);
Expected result:
----------------
bool(false)
string(7) "6098881"
string(14) "<X>6098881</X>"
bool(false)
string(13) "501936634a721"
string(43) "<?xml version="1.0"?>
<X>501936634a721</X>
"
Actual result:
--------------
bool(true)
string(7) "6098881"
string(14) "<X>6098881</X>"
bool(false)
string(13) "501936634a721"
string(43) "<?xml version="1.0"?>\n<X>501936634a721</X>\n"
