#41976 [Fbk->Opn]: json_encode() ignores CDATA in SimpleXML data

New Comment:
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.

Don't use such texts for 'Summary'. Please write something that
describes the problem..

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.)
$xml = new SimpleXMLElement('testvaluesomething');
var_dump(json_encode($xml));
var_dump(json_encode((string) $xml));
$xml = new SimpleXMLElement('valuesomething');
var_dump(json_encode($xml));
var_dump(json_encode((string) $xml));

Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not
a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at
http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report
a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php
Yes, and it will try to serialize the SimpleXML object, what won't
work, that's part of SimpleXML's behaviour

Sorry, I disagree. This is a bug, not bogus.
The manual says that json_encode works on any type except resources.
$xml = new SimpleXMLElement('');
var_dump(is_resource($xml));
outputs false, (which is obvious as SimpleXML is not listed in the list
of resource types). Thus SimpleXML is not a resource and must be
processed by json_encode() without a string cast. How would I supposed
to cast an XML tree to string anyway?
Please have a look at bug#38680, where a similar issue was discussed.
[2007-07-12 09:08:39] [EMAIL PROTECTED]
var_dump((string) $xml);
var_dump(json_encode($xml)); <-- you have to cast it to string
explicitly, otherwise json_encode() will encode the object itself, not
it's string representation.

#24671 [NEW]: Case problem with internal list of included files handling
From: stefan dot priebsch at e-novative dot de
Operating system: Win2K, WinXP
PHP version: 4.3.2
PHP Bug Type: Scripting Engine problem
Bug description: Case problem with internal list of included files handling
Description:
When the same file is include_once'd multiple times, but with a different
case, PHP does not recognize that actually the same file is included
multiple times. This can lead to "cannot redefine function (resp. class)"
errors.
>From looking at the array returned by get_included_files, it seems that
PHP handles the list in a case-sensitive way, which obviously is wrong
since Win path and file names are not case sensitive.
To reproduce the error, create main.php and include.php using the code
below. The example produces a "cannot redefine" error, which is unexpected
behaviour.
When commenting out the function definition and running the example again,
one can see that the included file name appears twice in the list, but
with different case.
Reproduce code:
---
main.php:
print 'main ';
include_once ('include.php');
print_r (get_included_files ());
include_once ('Include.php');
print_r (get_included_files ());
include.php:
print 'included file ';
function included_fn ()
{
print 'included fn ';
}
Expected result:
main included file Array ( [0] => main.php [1] => include.php ) included
file
[full paths removed for clarity]
Actual result:
--
main included file Array ( [0] => main.php [1] => include.php ) included
file
Fatal error: Cannot redeclare included_fn() (previously declared in
include.php:7) in Include.php on line 5
[full paths removed for clarity]
