IMHO, the prefix will turn everything more readable...
I already saw people experiencing some doubts regarding this piece of
code. I had to illustrate it everything.
namespace Foo;
class Bar
{
public function test()
{
try {
do_some_stuf();
} catch (Exception $e) { // Refers to Foo\Exception
// Special handling of Foo Exception
} catch (\Exception $e) { // Refers to PHP Exception
// Special handling of Exception
}
}
}
I just updated the code to explain wtf is happening... but he was just
trying to do a simple try { .. } catch (Exception $e) { ... } and
thought it was a bug since it was refering to Foo\Exception. Sounds
newbie, but you will have troubles in the future.
