Subject: XML::XPath::Node::Element::getAttributeNode() uses unspecified behaviour
Date: Tue, 5 Apr 2016 14:46:59 +0100
To: bug-XML-XPath [...] rt.cpan.org
From: Dave Mitchell <davem [...] iabyn.com>
The sub getAttributeNode() in XML::XPath::Node relies on the unspecified behaviour of foreach for what it returns when there are no attributes present. In particular, starting with perl version 5.23.8, the return value of a for loop when iterated over zero times, has changed from returning undef to returning false. Other subs might be similarly affected. See https://rt.perl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=127638 for more details. -- Justice is when you get what you deserve. Law is when you get what you pay for.
