Description:
------------
Extending form SimpleXMLElement and implementing Iterator does not work. I can 
understand that (albeit it is a little pity). However this report is about getting 
a message box for a fatal error when running in CLI / Phpstorm.

I normally reported this kind of problems here in the bugtracker because the error 
shouldn't be given as a windows msgbox.

Test script:
---------------
class MySimpleXMLelement extends SimpleXMLElement implements Iterator
{

    public function current() {
        return current($this);
    }

    public function next() {
        next($this);
    }

    public function key() {
        return key($this);
    }

    public function valid() {
        return each($this);
    }

    public function rewind() {
        reset($this);
    }
}

Actual result:
--------------
Getting a standard Windows MsgBox with the following text:

"Class MySimpleXMLelement could not implement interface Iterator"

I reported this against a wrong package, was actually looking for "standard 
windows" category or something. Sorry for the fuzz.

Not reproducible for me with neither 5.4 nor 5.5. I just get on console

Fatal error: Class MySimpleXMLelement could not implement interface Iterator in 
Unknown on line 0

when running your test script.

Could you please provide more details about your php.ini and extensions loaded?

You should be able to reproduce this with the following two php.ini settings:

[PHP]
display_startup_errors = On
log_errors = On

Both need to be set to on as I have found out, otherwise the Msgbox is not shown.

You should be able to reproduce from command-line on windows with:

php -n -d display_startup_errors=1 -d log_errors=1 -r "class M extends SimpleXMLElement implements Iterator {}"
