Invalid XML with PHP anonymous class

Hello 👋

I would like to know if there’s an update regarding the pre-parsing sanitization @joonty ?

I’ve run into an issue similar to #60 today, the parsed xml is:

<response xmlns="urn:debugger_protocol_v1" xmlns:xdebug="http://xdebug.org/dbgp/xdebug" command="context_get" transaction_id="17" context="0">
    <property name="$deferred" fullname="$deferred" type="object" classname="Amp\Deferred" children="1" numchildren="2" page="0" pagesize="32">
        <property name="resolver" fullname="$deferred-&gt;resolver" facet="private" type="object" classname="class@anonymous&#0;/app/vendor/amphp/amp/lib/Deferred.php0x7fa0c40e72d3" children="1" numchildren="4">
        </property>
        <property name="promise" fullname="$deferred-&gt;promise" facet="private" type="object" classname="Amp\Internal\PrivatePromise" children="1" numchildren="1">
        </property>
    </property>
</response>

which is invalid (because of “invalid character number” �).

The full vdebug error trace is:

- [ERROR] {Tue 17 2018 13:05:36} An error occured: <class 'xml.etree.ElementTree.ParseError'>
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/gildas/.vim/plugged/vdebug/pythonx/vdebug/event.py", line 524, in dispatch_event

    for c in list(self.as_xml()):
  File "<string>", line None
xml.etree.ElementTree.ParseError: reference to invalid character number: line 2, column 397

And here’s the PHP version I’m using:

PHP 7.2.3 (cli) (built: Mar  5 2018 21:28:31) ( NTS )
Copyright (c) 1997-2018 The PHP Group
Zend Engine v3.2.0, Copyright (c) 1998-2018 Zend Technologies
    with Xdebug v2.6.0, Copyright (c) 2002-2018, by Derick Rethans

I’m using version 2.0.0 of Vdebug.

Sorry if this has been issued before, I haven’t found any reference to it.

Thanks in advance.

Just had this problem, and fixed with the config proposed by @gquemener. Making this as the default should be the way to go imo.

I would suggest to make that a default setting, if vdebug supports it, that is.
