Description:
------------
When the PHP soap client parses a SOAP response that contains multiple
recurrences of an <xsd:choice maxOccurs="unbounded"> element, the
ordering of elements can be lost, as the results are grouped by element
type.
For example, take the following complex type:
<xsd:complexType name="sentence">
<xsd:choice maxOccurs="unbounded">
<xsd element name="noun" type="xsd:string" />
<xsd element name="verb" type="xsd:string" />
<xsd element name="other" type="xsd:string" />
</xsd:choice>
</xsd:type>
This type can describe a sentence, with one element per word. An
example sentence might be:
<sentence>
<other>The</other>
<noun>cat</noun>
<other>is</other>
<verb>playing</verb>
<other>with</other>
<noun>string</noun>
</sentence>
When PHP parses this, it groups the elements by type. Thus, a sentence
which reads "The cat is playing with string", is mangled to read "cat
string playing The is with"
I've posted a wsdl to demonstrate the problem at:
http://zx81.highlyillogical.org/~simon/phpbugtest/phpbugtest.wsdl
A valid XML response similar to the case above is at:
http://zx81.highlyillogical.org/~simon/phpbugtest/bugtest.xml
To reproduce the problem, simply call the bugtest operation on the
above wsdl. It will always return the above xml response.
Reproduce code:
---------------
$client = new SoapClient (
"http://zx81.highlyillogical.org/~simon/phpbugtest/phpbugtest.wsdl" ) ;
// we're just hitting an XML file, so we don't care about the input
$result = $client->bugtest ( ) ;
var_dump ( $result ) ;
Expected result:
----------------
An output with the resulting objects are presented in the order in
which they occurred in the document.
Actual result:
--------------
object(stdClass)#2 (3) {
["noun"]=>
array(2) {
[0]=>
string(3) "cat"
[1]=>
string(6) "string"
}
["verb"]=>
string(7) "playing"
["other"]=>
array(3) {
[0]=>
string(3) "The"
[1]=>
string(2) "is"
[2]=>
string(4) "with"
}
}
