Description:
------------
see the test script.
inside the foreach-loop the call of e.g. $nodes->asXml() will reset the
iteration
to the beginning and therefore the loop will forever remain on the second
element.
this may be related to bug #50670 and #51846
greets, karl
Test script:
---------------
$xmlString = "<root><a><b>1</b><b>2</b><b>3</b></a></root>";
$xml = simplexml_load_string($xmlString);
$nodes = $xml->a->b;
foreach ($nodes as $nodeData) {
echo "nodeData: " . $nodeData . "\n";
//the following code will break the iteration on the second element and
resets the pointer
//happens by any of these methods
$xml = $nodes->asXml();
//$nodes->getName();
//$nodes->attributes();
//$nodes->children();
//$nodes->getNamespaces();
//iteration_breaker($nodes);
}
Expected result:
----------------
nodeData: 1
nodeData: 2
nodeData: 3
Actual result:
--------------
nodeData: 1
nodeData: 2
nodeData: 2
nodeData: 2
nodeData: 2
nodeData: 2
nodeData: 2
nodeData: 2
nodeData: 2
nodeData: 2
and so on...
