We must not treat a node as string if it has attributes, unless it is an entity declaration which is always treated as string by simplexml.

Looks like the Bla bla 1. text got lost completely here?

That is actually to be expected for mixed content; text nodes are dropped. That is already the case if these elements are var_dump()ed directly (in this case var_dump($sxe->elem1); only children of the SimpleXMLElement are treated wrong without this patch.

That seems pretty weird ... but it's SimpleXML so 🤷♂️

Upstream bug reports of the behavior change introduced in PHP 7.3.17 (and applied to PHP 7.4 branch as well): https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=79528 https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=79485 The reponsible commit in PHP was php/php-src#5246 This was a "bug fix" in the sense that SimpleXML used to discard the attributes on the namespace elements, which look like this: <namespace key="-2" case="first-letter">Media</namespace> SimpleXML used to return this as a string "Media" instead of a SimpleXMLElement... but ExportTest (inadvertently?) depended on that behavior. In any case, if we iterate over SimpleXMLElement::children() we always get SimpleXMLElements, not "sometimes strings", and so our code will correct correctly on PHP below 7.3.17 and above, regardless of how PHP decides to handle this "bug".

This "fix" is a breaking change from PHP 7.3.16 to 7.3.17. Differences: This can kill running systems that are uses XML. Please don't release "fixes" like this as an bugfix release. |

Sorry, that this happened; the bad fix has already been reverted, and PHP 7.3.18 (which will be released tomorrow) should be working again like before (not that the former behavior makes sense, though). |

Reverting is also a bad idea (for us), because we have fixed our bugs with version 7.3.17. |
