Bug description:inconsistent behavior with booleans in writeElement() method
Description:
------------
I use xmlWriter a lot, but I found a quite inconsistent behavior with
booleans in
xmlWriter.
When filling an element/namespace with a boolean :
- if the boolean is true, it is automatically casted to an int (1), which
is a
legal representation of the boolean.
- if the boolean is false, no value is given to the element/attribute.
I made a little script to reproduce the problem.It runs well in CLI
Test script:
---------------
<?php
xml(true);
xml(false);
function xml($bool) {
$xml = new XmlWriter();
$xml->openMemory();
$xml->setIndent(true);
$xml->startElement('root');
$xml->writeAttribute('boolAttr', $bool);
$res = $xml->writeElement('myboolean',$bool);
$xml->endElement();
echo $xml->flush().PHP_EOL;
var_dump($res);
}
Expected result:
----------------
<root boolAttr="1">
<myboolean>1</myboolean>
</root>
bool(true)
<root boolAttr="0">
<myboolean>0</myboolean>
</root>
Actual result:
--------------
<root boolAttr="1">
<myboolean>1</myboolean>
</root>
bool(true)
<root boolAttr="">
<myboolean></myboolean>
</root>
