For instance, this happens when these criteria are met:
1) No casting has been specified for a method in $casting.
2) A template accesses the field without any casting
3) Any casts by the template will now yield an empty object.
After a brief look at the commit history, it can seem like this bug is several years old, unless it is a side-effect of other changes in the code.
== Steps to reproduce ==
Add two methods to be accessed by a template. Make sure you do not define an entry in $casting for them:
public function Testus() {
return "Te<x>t1";
}
public function Testus2() {
return "Te<x>t2";
}
Add this to a template:
<p>
First access:<br />
"$Testus" : "$Testus.XML"<br />
"$Testus2.XML" : "$Testus2"<br />
</p>
<p>
Second access:<br />
"$Testus" : "$Testus.XML"<br />
"$Testus2.XML" : "$Testus2"<br />
</p>
Open the page in a browser, and you will get:
First access:
"Tet1" : ""
"Te<x>t2" : "Tet2"
Second access:
"Tet1" : ""
"" : "Tet2"
We see that any cast can yield an empty string.
