From: tony at marston-home dot demon dot co dot uk Operating system: Windows XP PHP version: 5.3.1 PHP Bug Type: *General Issues Bug description: xmlrpc_server_call_method does not preserve keys in indexed arrays
Description: ------------ When the method called in xmlrpc_server_call_method() returns an array where the keys are numeric but non-sequential it does not include the keys in the xml response, so when that response is decoded by the client all the keys are resequenced from zero. This means that all the original keys are lost. Reproduce code: --------------- function indexedArray ( $func, $params) { return array(1=>'One', 3=>'Three', 5=>'Five'); } // indexedArray $server = xmlrpc_server_create(); $result = xmlrpc_server_register_method($server, 'indexedArray', 'indexedArray'); $HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA = <<<EOD <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <methodCall> <methodName>indexedArray</methodName> <params /> </methodCall> EOD; $response = xmlrpc_server_call_method($server, $HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA, null); $array = xmlrpc_decode($response); Expected result: ---------------- The contents of $array should read (1=>'One', 3=>'Three', 5=>'Five'). This is because the xml document does not contain any <name> elements for each <member>. Actual result: -------------- The contents of $array is (0=>'One', 1=>'Three', 2=>'Five') -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=50285&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.2): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50285&r=trysnapshot52 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.3): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50285&r=trysnapshot53 Try a snapshot (PHP 6.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50285&r=trysnapshot60 Fixed in SVN: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50285&r=fixed Fixed in SVN and need be documented: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50285&r=needdocs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50285&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50285&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50285&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50285&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50285&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50285&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50285&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50285&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50285&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50285&r=php4 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50285&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50285&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50285&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50285&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50285&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50285&r=mysqlcfg
