In response for a bug 40433. Specially for chregu@php.net


Sorry, but I'm thinking you're stupid. You can't see the problem that this wrong behaviour it's causing and you're replying this as a man tha has crap on brain and not have a minimum respect.

UTF-8 isn't the unique charset in the world and PHP language can loose some programmers and enterprises who likes this language cause you do a stupid response for a stupid bug instead of rethinking it.

If the libxml2 doesn't support at least the charsets most used in the world and you change to this lib you aren't thinking who this causes to us and to you. And it isn't documented on SimpleXML manual.

I use this class in a big project. I'm using iso-8859-1 and I was affected for this BUG (yes. for me and for a lot of programmers a wrong behaviour is a bug even it was thinked before relese it). But I look at the problem later and I needed to do a stupid conversion always decreasing the system performance.

Learn to speak correctly with your clients before reply a bug. Programmers make enterprise decisions for what language use to code a system, programmers buy PHP books, help your code, submit bugs, buy certifications, zend features and others thinks. Then, respect us.
