Can't set x_delim_char or x_enca_char in PHP CIM SDK when parsing responses

deviantintegral — Mon, 07 Mar 2011 18:07:54 GMT

As is, these two properties can be set when creating a transaction, but they aren't used when parsing the response from AIM. This means that the output from getTransactionResponse() will be quite broken. Also, because it is hardcoded to use a comma as the delimiter, it means it's impossible to allow users to use commas in something like their billing address.

It would be great if there was a method to set these two values instead of using extraOptions, so that the class could use them when parsing responses.

Here's a patch that defaults to using the pipe character for x_encap_char anyone else who is running into this issue.

Here's an update that fixes an incorrect operator.

Re: Can't set x_delim_char or x_encap_char in PHP CIM SDK when parsing responses

I have also found that the "_setPostString" function also does not correctly replace everything as it should:

BAD:

$this->_post_string = str_replace("<extraOptions></extraOptions>",'<extraOptions><![CDATA[' . $this->_extraOptions . ']]></extraOptions>', $this->_xml->asXML());

GOOD:

$this->_post_string = str_replace(array("<extraOptions></extraOptions>","<extraOptions/>"),'<extraOptions><![CDATA[' . $this->_extraOptions . ']]></extraOptions>', $this->_xml->asXML());

I discovered that the library was creating an element as "<extraOptions/>" but the code wasn't set to do a string replace for the self-closing elements -- so even when I added the extra options in there (according to deviantintegral), the XML that was coming out still didn't have the values in there.

Making the code replace BOTH <extraOptions></extraOptions> AND <extraOptions/> fixed it for me!

Hope this helps!

Thanks for the heads up on that. Your example looks like a good solution, I'll try to get it added soon to the official package. It's unfortunate that simpleXML doesn't have native CDATA functionality so that we could avoid the str_replace altogether.
