My only objections have already been raised, but I'll reiterate them briefly: 1. Having both Error and Exception makes little sense, especially since we have historically used error to refer to an error that wasn't an exception (something that triggered the error handler). 2. The name "Error" is going to have a fairly high collision rate with user code. 3. I think they should all use Exception as the root instead having a new root with multiple children (and yes, I am aware of the impact of this, and it has already been discussed on this list). -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
