Description:
------------
wddx_add_vars() correctly converts values to UTF-8, but doesn't convert var names to UTF-8, so wddx_deserialize() return an empty array as XML packet contains var names with accent.

below is a script showing that string values are converted to UTF-8 by wddx_add_vars, but var names are not converted. It also show that wddx_deserialize() works fine when input packet contains UTF_8 encoded var names manually, but doesn't work when var names are let accentuated by wddx_add_vars().

Could you please, modify wddx_add_vars, to UTF_8 encode var names as already done for string values ?

Thank for your help.


Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
 
// If varname is ascii, unserialize is OK //
$packet_id = wddx_packet_start("PHP");
$varname = "value ?";
      wddx_add_vars($packet_id,"varname");
      $packet = wddx_packet_end($packet_id);
var_dump ($packet);
echo "\n\n";
$result = wddx_deserialize($packet);
var_dump ($result);

// If varname is non_ascii, unserialize return array(0) {} //
$packet_id = wddx_packet_start("PHP");
$varname? = "value ?";
      wddx_add_vars($packet_id,"varname?");
      $packet = wddx_packet_end($packet_id);
var_dump ($packet);
$result = wddx_deserialize($packet);
var_dump ($result);

// If packet contains non_ascii UTF-8 encoded varname, unserialize is OK //
$packet = "<wddxPacket version='1.0'><header><comment>PHP</comment></header><data><struct><var name='varnameé'><string>value é</string></var></struct></data></wddxPacket>";
var_dump ($packet);
$result = wddx_deserialize($packet);
var_dump ($result);

?>

Expected result:
----------------
string(159) "value é"
array(1) { ["varname"]=> string(7) "value ?" }
string(160) "value é"
array(1) { ["varname?"]=> string(7) "value ?" }
string(161) "value é"
array(1) { ["varname?"]=> string(7) "value ?" }

Actual result:
--------------
string(159) "value é"
array(1) { ["varname"]=> string(7) "value ?" }
string(160) "value é"
array(0) { }
string(161) "value é"
array(1) { ["varname?"]=> string(7) "value ?" }

Modifying wddx.c as below solves the problem (php_wddx_serialize_var also encode parameter names in addition to parameter values) :

Original wddx.c :
void php_wddx_serialize_var(wddx_packet *packet, zval *var, char *name, int name
_len TSRMLS_DC)
{
        char *tmp_buf;
        char *name_esc;
        int name_esc_len;
        HashTable *ht;

        if (name) {
                name_esc = php_escape_html_entities(name, name_len, &name_esc_len, 0, ENT_QUOTES, NULL TSRMLS_CC);
                tmp_buf = emalloc(name_esc_len + sizeof(WDDX_VAR_S));
                snprintf(tmp_buf, name_esc_len + sizeof(WDDX_VAR_S), WDDX_VAR_S, name_esc);
                php_wddx_add_chunk(packet, tmp_buf);
                efree(tmp_buf);
                efree(name_esc);
        }


Mofified wddx.c :
void php_wddx_serialize_var(wddx_packet *packet, zval *var, char *name, int name
_len TSRMLS_DC)
{
        char *tmp_buf;
        char *enc;
        char *name_esc;
        int name_esc_len;
        int enc_len;
        HashTable *ht;

        if (name) {
                name_esc = php_escape_html_entities(name, name_len, &name_esc_len, 0, ENT_QUOTES, NULL TSRMLS_CC);
                enc = xml_utf8_encode(name_esc, name_esc_len, &enc_len, "ISO-8859-1");
                tmp_buf = emalloc(enc_len + sizeof(WDDX_VAR_S));
                snprintf(tmp_buf, enc_len + sizeof(WDDX_VAR_S), WDDX_VAR_S, enc);
                php_wddx_add_chunk(packet, tmp_buf);
                efree(tmp_buf);
                efree(name_esc);
                efree(enc);

Could you, please, include some modification like this one in future versions.
Thanks in advance.

This report is bogus, as WDDX is not supposed to convert content to UTF-8 either.

Please see bug #46496 for more infos.

Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not
a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at
http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report
a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php
