Andy - we emailed before about the WDDX module. I think I found another
problem. When you use the hash2wddx or array2wddx functions and one of the
values within the hash/array is undef, the whole thing crashes. This is
because the function recurses into objects ARRAY or HASH but it assumes
anything else to be of type string. And when it tries to treat undef as
string, it involves creation of an object of type WDDX::String which fails
here
croak "You must supply a value when creating a new $class object\n"
unless defined $value;
This results in the whole script quitting.
I am not sure it's supposed to be that way. If it's recursing and it hits
undef, it should really translate it into null object.
Please look into it. Thanks.
Frantisek
