It does, since foreach uses rewind. So first rewind should succeed if you want iterators be usable in foreach. OTOH, on something like DB result set, next rewind does not make any sense, if you have non-seekable cursor, since the results consumed are gone and there's no way to get them back (you could rerun the query, but it might have side effects and nobody guarantees you'd get the same result anyway). So it makes sense for the generator to succeed on first rewind but fail on next ones. Note that generators by nature are stateful objects, so it is not unexpected that they would produce different result in different states. -- Stanislav Malyshev, Software Architect SugarCRM: http://www.sugarcrm.com/ (408)454-6900 ext. 227 -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
