get_class（）期望参数1是对象，使用bitly-url-shortener时给出的字符串[关闭]

Question

I wanted to use bitly-url-shortener (http://www.yiiframework.com/extension/bitly-url-shortener/) to shorten my url. The code that I am using is below,

<?php Yii::app()->bitly->shorten('http://www.betaworks.com')->getResponseData(); ?>

It give me this error,

 get_class() expects parameter 1 to be object, string given

D:\_App\buddyshop\protected\extensions\bitly\VGBitly.php(578)

566      */
567     public function getErrorMessage()
568     {
569         return $this->errorMessage;
570     }
571     
572     /**
573      * @return array - Convert a SimpleXML object to an array so we
574      * Could safely store it in the cache and retrieve it when needed.
575      */
576     protected function simplexml2array($xml) 
577     {
578         if (get_class($xml) == 'SimpleXMLElement') 
579         {
580             $attributes = $xml->attributes();
581             foreach($attributes as $k=>$v) 
582             {
583                 if ($v) $a[$k] = (string) $v;
584             }
585             $x = $xml;
586             $xml = get_object_vars($xml);
587         }
588         if (is_array($xml)) 
589         {
590             if (count($xml) == 0) return (string) $x; // for CDATA

the error is indicated on line 578.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

As you have contacted author of code hopefully you will get better solution from them but meanwhile you can place below to make it work:

replace :

if (get_class($xml) == 'SimpleXMLElement') 

with

if (is_object($xml) && get_class($xml) == 'SimpleXMLElement')
