Description:
------------
I'm using the "VC14 x64 Thread Safe" version with following extensions enabled:
extension=php_mbstring.dll
extension=php_openssl.dll
extension=php_pdo_mysql.dll
extension=php_pdo_sqlite.dll
extension=php_soap.dll
extension=php_sqlite3.dll

I encounter a problem when iterating over a DOMNodeList object while overwriting the $value:

foreach ($dataNodes AS $node) {
    $node = $datasetDom->importNode($node, true);
    // ...
}

Actually I'm not able to reproduce this separated from our unit tests but at least I have a backtrace (that's what I get, if I follow this guide: https://bugs.php.net/bugs-generating-backtrace-win32.php) - see actual result.

I can provide the full dump if necessary.

The behaviour is very strange because it can be manipulated/suppressed by simply removing an entry from another array in another scope which will never be used. Or by simply running the test wihout another which are absolutely independed from each other.

Actual result:

Thanks for the report. Yep, a dump were useful.

Also an idea - if it is only reproduceable with phpunit, maybe it could make sense to create a suite with just that one unit test as a reproduce case (of course if it does repro then)?

Thanks.

Here's the log and dump:

I am going to investigate further to see if we have a chance to extract a reproduce case. As it seems to be a memory problem it simply relies on other (absolutely independent) code. Running the test alone works. Running two tests in a folder will crash...

[2015-06-16 10:03 UTC] ab@php.net

Thanks for the dump. Maybe it'll help if i say that the crash happens in SetaPDF_FormFiller_XfaTest, maybe it needs some more stress for a reproduce. But i'll dig further in the meanwhile.

Thanks.

[2015-06-16 10:47 UTC] jan dot slabon at setasign dot com

While I am trying to reproduce it, its behaviour becomes much more strange: Yesterday evening the crash was reproducible with a test item no 13. Today it's 10...

I am going to clean-up the whole package so I only left the files which are needed to reproduce this issue. Anyhow I would please you to confirm that these files are not being used further or made public, because they are part of proprietary products. I can send it to ab@php.net?

[2015-06-16 12:34 UTC] jan dot slabon at setasign dot com

I just send a reproduce case to ab@php.net.

[2015-06-16 21:35 UTC] jan dot slabon at setasign dot com

While doing further tests I encountered a simliar problem (no segmentation fault) but for me it looks related as it only happens if I edit the $value ($node) in the foreach-loop. A reproduce case is available here: http://3v4l.org/MNakn If this is not releated, feel free to tell me and I am going to open another bug report.

Jan,

I was able to issue a partial fix, the crash should be gone now. Please check any snapshot starting with http://windows.php.net/downloads/snaps/master/rbb4454b/ . I think the case with reassigning in the loop should become a separate ticket. But please check first.

Thanks

Hi Anatol,

Thanks! But the test case I send you still ends in a segmentation fault.

Cheers,
Jan

Ups, it wasn't supposed to close the ticket.

Jan, could you please check yet again? http://windows.php.net/downloads/snaps/master/rd079a1c/ . It's still building and we miss x64 yet, but x86 should be sufficient, too. I can also produce a handmade snapshot if you wish.

Thanks.

Looks good with http://windows.php.net/downloads/snaps/master/rd079a1c/php-master-nts-windows-vc14-x86-rd079a1c.zip now!

Also this one seems to be fixed: http://3v4l.org/MNakn

Anyhow I encounter several other failed unit tests now (nearly all related to DOM). I am going to investigate further to see what's the problem now. The one I send you went through now...

Thanks Anatol!

Thanks for the quick feedback.

Yep, the correct out in that snippet is "1112", so three iterations. That means this ticket is through with both the crash and the reassignment in foreach, the behavior should be the same as in PHP5.

Cheers.
