I have the following class that I have written. Seems to work OK with simple objects that have one level but does not work well when objects have multiple levels (multi-arrays) and the XML is all messed up. Can anyone help me improve this so it will work with any object?\[code\]class XMLGenerator{ function __construct($obj,$root, $element, $fullXML = true) { $array = $this->object_2_array($obj); $this->output = "<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"UTF-8\"?>\n"; $this->output .= $this->make($array, $root, $element, $fullXML); } //convert objects into arrays function object_2_array($result){ $array = array(); foreach ($result as $key => $value){ if (is_object($value)){ $array[$key]=XMLGenerator:
bject_2_array($value); } elseif (is_array($value)){ $array[$key]=XMLGenerator:bject_2_array($value); } else { $array[$key]=$value; } } return $array; } //make XML function make($array, $root, $element, $fullXML) { if (is_numeric($root)) { $xml = "<{$element}>\n"; } else { $xml = "<{$root}>\n"; } foreach ($array as $key => $value) { if (is_array($value)) { if ($element == 'options'){ //workaround for orders 3 level problem, need to rethink this - LT $xml .= $this->make($value, $key, $key, $fullXML); } else { $xml .= $this->make($value, $element, $key, $fullXML); } } else { //any fields with HTML need wrapping in CDATA if (($key === 'Description')||( $key === 'productDescription' )){ $value = 'http://stackoverflow.com/questions/9296900/<![CDATA['. $value .']]>'; //remove any chars XML doesnt like } else { $value = http://stackoverflow.com/questions/9296900/htmlentities($value,ENT_QUOTES,'UTF-8'); $value = http://stackoverflow.com/questions/9296900/functions::xml_entities($value); } //decide on node name if (is_numeric($key)) { $xml .="<{$root}>{$value}</{$root}>\n"; } else { $xml .= "<{$key}>{$value}</{$key}>\n"; } } } if (is_numeric($root)) { $xml .= "</{$element}>\n"; } else { $xml .= "</{$root}>\n"; } return $xml; } //save XML to file function saveFile($file){ //create DOM to ensure all XML is valid before writing to file $doc = new DOMDocument(); $doc->loadXML($this->output); if ($doc->save("$file")){ return TRUE; } else { return FALSE; } }}\[/code\]The below is a simple object that works well with the above class.\[quote\] Products Object ( [db_connectionrotected] => 3779074 [prod_idrotected] => 0 [shopkeeperrotected] => 0 [fields] => Array (\[code\] [productDescription] => Test [productName] => Test [UPC] => 123 )\[/code\] )\[/quote\]The below does not work well at all.\[quote\] Order Object ( [db_connectionrotected] => msSqlConnect Object ( [con] => [dbName] => )\[code\][skIDrotected] => 89137[orderIDrotected] => 482325[order] => Array ( [id] => 482325 [customer] => 491936 [net] => 1565.98 [vat] => 274.05 [billing_address] => Address Object ( [db_connectionrotected] => msSqlConnect Object ( [con] => [dbName] => ) [custIDrotected] => 491936 [addIDrotected] => 156928 [fields] => Array ( [id] => 156928 [surname] => test [forename] => test [add1] => 89 testRoad [add2] => [city] => City [country] => GB [postcode] => POSTCODE ) ) [items] => Array ( [0] => Array ( [id] => 716549 [headerID] => 482325 [productID] => 4084620 [net] => 22.99 [vat] => 4.0233 [qty] => 1 [options] => Array ( [0] => Array ( [id] => [orderDetailsID] => 716549 [optionid] => 763217 [optionCost] => 100 [optionVAT] => 17.5 ) [1] => Array ( [id] => [orderDetailsID] => 716549 [optionid] => 763241 [optionCost] => 10 [optionVAT] => 1.75 ) ) ) [1] => Array ( [id] => 716551 [headerID] => 482325 [productID] => 3779074 [net] => 1400 [vat] => 245 [qty] => 1 [options] => ) ) ) )\[/code\]\[/quote\]Many thanks in advance for any help.
