Hello all, I have an application that I am moving from php4 to php5 that I get some errors in. Namely:

 

Catchable fatal error: Object of class XMLTag could not be converted to string in WEBRView.php on line 497

 

Line 497 has the:  return (isset($s) && strlen($s)); // var is set and not an empty string '' of this function:

function check_not_empty($s, $include_whitespace = false)
{
    if ($include_whitespace) {
        // make it so strings containing white space are treated as empty too
		$s = trim($s);	
    }
    return (isset($s) && strlen($s)); // var is set and not an empty string ''
}

 

I cannot figure out why it is doing this... It works fine on the php4 server. Here is the code for the file that is throwing this error:

I would guess you need some code before the line that fails which checks if $s is an XMLTag, and takes appropriate action if it is.  Did you write this code or are you porting someone else's code from php4 to php5?

Hi thanks for the reply. This was written before I arrived at my current position. The person who wrote the PHP Parsing script, Adam Flynn, has been very helpful. He replied to me about passing Strings into the check_not_empty function. Which has worked to a certain extent. I am no longer getting errors, however, the XML isn't rendering in the page correctly yet.

 

So, this error is solved in all reality.

I was just reading up on this post:

 

Passed by Reference

This is an important change. In PHP4, everything was passed by value, including objects. This has changed in PHP5 -- all objects are now passed by reference.

 

PHP Code:

$joe = new Person();

$joe->sex = 'male';

 

$betty = $joe;

$betty->sex = 'female';

 

echo $joe->sex; // Will be 'female' 

The above code fragment was common in PHP4. If you needed to duplicate an object, you simply copied it by assigning it to another variable. But in PHP5 you must use the new clone keyword.

 

Note that this also means you can stop using the reference operator (&). It was common practice to pass your objects around using the & operator to get around the annoying pass-by-value functionality in PHP4.

 

I guess this might have a lot to do with this script I am looking at...
