Error with PUT parameters in CHttpRequest ( method getRestParams() )

[pedrocalgaro]

Hi everyone,

I'm having a problem when I trying to get parameters from a PUT request and I believe is is a bug of the framework.
When the method getRestParams() is called, it tries to parse the rawBody.
The method getRawBody() returns the value of file_get_contents('php://input')

The function file_get_contents('php://input') returns the value:

{"foo": "foo content", "bar": "bar content"}

The function getRestParams() tries to parse this content calling the function mb_parse_str

mb_parse_str($this->getRawBody(), $result);

But this returns:

Array
(
    [{"foo": "foo content", "bar": "bar content"}] => 
)

So I changed the line: (https://github.com/yiisoft/yii/blob/master/framework/web/CHttpRequest.php#L290)

mb_parse_str($this->getRawBody(), $result);

To:

$result = json_decode($this->getRawBody(), true);

And after that, it works like a charm.

You could look at it?

Yii does not support JSON requests by default, to enable json input you have to extend CHttpRequest and override getRestParams(). In yii 2.0 we already have support for this. marking this as a feature request.
