JRegistryFormatINI::stringToObject() returns empty object

[eaxs]

I think there's a simple error in: "/libraries/joomla/registry/format/ini.php" which caused the method to always return an empty object:

// Validate the key.
if (preg_match('/[^A-Z0-9_]/i', $key))
{
    // Maybe throw exception?
    continue;
}

Shouldn't it be "not" (!):

if (!preg_match('/[^A-Z0-9_]/i', $key))

To reproduce:

$params = JRegistry::getInstance('test');
$params->loadFile('/path/to/ini_file', 'INI');

I think you are true. Sent a pull request to the platform repo:

joomla/joomla-platform#1415

If approved I'll send it also to the joomla-cms

Cool, thanks!

Hi guys,

What's the status on this one? With the new reabsorption of the platform by the CMS, we can apply this directly to the CMS, if needed.

Thanks for reporting this. At this time we are only using github as the place to submit code fixes so I am closing the report here. The actual reporting of issues and testing fixes is still taking place on Joomlacode.

As it has been some time since you opened this issue can you please confirm that it is still valid with the current Master or Joomla 3.2 beta.

If it is still valid please can you open an item on the Joomlacode tracker in the appropriate area.
