@ze-pequeno where is that return statement?

[llpereiras]

I go try add more information.
In my model class, i add this method.

private function stringToXml($str)
{
    if(!$str)
        return;
    return simplexml_load_string($str);
}

when the ZendDeveloperTools is active in my Module.php, i receveid this error:

Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'Exception' with message 'Serialization of 'SimpleXMLElement' 
is not allowed' in mywebsite\vendor\ZendDeveloperTools\src\ZendDeveloperTools\Collector\DbCollector.php on line 136

This is indeed a problem: I most probably have to split out the serialization tools into a small separate lib that can serialize all internal PHP classes, or at least stub them.

@Ocramius Sorry for being dense. It's been quite a while since I looked at all this code. Why is the profiler being serialized? Would something as simple as json_encode() fix this?

[Ocramius]

@moderndeveloperllc the profiler is being serialized to keep a snapshot of the data at the time where is relevant for us (to see what's going on). If that doesn't happen, then it is not possible to dump accurate information.

[moderndeveloperllc]

I guess the question is if further development should be done on this repo, or just have folks focus issues/PRs on Roave/RoaveDeveloperTools as you already solved this issue there with ObjectStub et al.

[Ocramius]

@moderndeveloperllc I'd rather fix it here and add a test there (should already work).

Yes, Roave/RoaveDeveloperTools will supersede this repo, but I don't have time for it right now.

[seyfer]

I have the same error right now.

[seyfer]

It can be fixed with something like that wrapping, but I don't know exactly where in code

if ($var instanceof \SimpleXmlElement)
{
 $var = var_export($var);
}

And code at this place strange
https://github.com/zendframework/ZendDeveloperTools/blob/master/src/ZendDeveloperTools/Profiler.php#L212

$this->report->addCollector(unserialize(serialize($collector)));

[seyfer]

I am just removed unserialize(serialize()) and that do the trick, all works now.

Was handled in #190
