Reported By: president at basnetworks dot net
Status: Open
Bug Type: Class/Object related
Operating System: All

sjoerd-php at linuxonly dot nl,
Your code sample is much clearer, and seems to narrow it down to the
ternary operator mis-behaving. Thanks for the added clarification, I
will update the report.
You should also "vote" that you reproduced the bug above.

Note that the Iterator in my previous comment sucks and should not be
used.

Thank you for your bug report.
I could reproduce the behavior and made a code sample to reproduce it:
<?php
class TestObject implements Iterator
{
private $first = true;
function valid()
{
if ($this->first)
{
$this->first = false;
return true;
}
return false;
}
function current() { }
function next() { }
function key() { }
function rewind() { }
}
$array_object = new TestObject();
// Without ternary operator, the foreach is entered
foreach ($array_object as $item)
{
echo "This works.\n";
}
// With ternary operator, the foreach is not entered
foreach ((true ? $array_object : $array_object) as $item)
{
die("Good. Expected behavior.\n");
}
die("Bad. Foreach was skipped.\n");
?>

After further testing, I have found this bug is stranger than it
seems:
foreach ((isset($array_object) ? $array_object : array('1', '2', '3'))
as $item)
{
echo $item;
}
Should either print 'abc' or '123' no matter if isset() is successful
or fails. It prints neither. Now I am wondering if it is not isset(),
but the ternary operator that is failing.

I addition to the reproduce code, the following may help to understand
the bug:
foreach ($array_object as $item)
{
echo $item;
}
Will successfully print "abc", while:
foreach ((isset($array_object) ? $array_object : array()) as $item)
{
echo $item;
}
will not print anything, indicating that isset() is returning false. I
hope that helps.
