From: hjiverson at plauditdesign dot com Operating system: Gentoo Linux PHP version: 5CVS-2006-04-07 (snap) PHP Bug Type: SOAP related Bug description: server hangs when returning circular object references
Description: ------------ When I return a graph of objects that has circular references (a tree of categories, for example), the soap server gets stuck in an infinite loop/recursion and hangs. Reproduce code: --------------- http://dev.plauditdesign.com/~hjiverson/drop/php-soap-multiref-bug.txt Expected result: ---------------- The server should use mutliRefs and create references to each object. Each object instance would be serialized one time and given a unique ID, which is then pointed to each time an reference to that object is encountered. Something like this: <getThingWithParentResponse> <result href="#object1"/> </getThingWithParentResponse> ... <multiRef xsi:type="ThingWithParent" id="object1"> ... <parent xsi:nil="1"/> <children> <child href="#object2"/> </children> </multiRef> <multiRef xsi:type="ThingWithParent" id="object2"> ... <parent href="#object1"/> <children xsi:nil="1"/> </multiRef> Actual result: -------------- php hangs -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=37013&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 4.4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37013&r=trysnapshot44 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.1): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37013&r=trysnapshot51 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 6.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37013&r=trysnapshot60 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37013&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37013&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37013&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37013&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37013&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37013&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37013&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37013&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37013&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37013&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37013&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37013&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37013&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37013&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37013&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37013&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37013&r=mysqlcfg
