    hasChildren() works as documented here, but not as its name suggests.

    The method does not return whether the current entry actually *has* children. It only returns whether the element's type is one that is able to have children.

    This is a bit counterintuitive if you are processing empty arrays.

    Example:

    <?php
    $data     = array(
    "element one" => array(true),
    "element two" => array(),
    "element three" => array(true),
    );

    $i = new RecursiveIteratorIterator(new RecursiveArrayIterator($data),RecursiveIteratorIterator::SELF_FIRST);

    foreach(    $i as $key => $value)
    {
    $type = gettype($value);
    $depth = $i->getDepth();

    if(    $i->hasChildren()) {
    echo     "$depth: $key ($type) has children\n";
    } else {
    echo     "$depth: $key ($type) has no children\n";
    }
    }
    ?>

    Result:

    0: element one (array) has children
    1: 0 (boolean) has no children
    0: element two (array) has children
    0: element three (array) has children
    1: 0 (boolean) has no children
