Bug description: PDO::prepare() throws PDOException instead of returning FALSE
Description:
------------
Documentation says PDO::prepare() returns FALSE on failure.
But tests with PDO_SQLITE and PDO_MYSQL show that you either get a
PDOException thrown at you or a PDOStatement which cannot be executed.
I am quite surprised, for I upgraded from PHP5.2.0 to PHP5.2.5. In 5.2.0
both drivers threw exceptions on syntax-errors in PDO::prepare().
One could live with exceptions instead of FALSE but it should be done in a
uniform manner of all the drivers.
Reproduce code:
---------------
$pdo = new PDO('mysql:host=localhost;dbname=test',
'user', 'password',
array(PDO::ATTR_ERRMODE => PDO::ERRMODE_EXCEPTION));
$stmt = $pdo->prepare('some nonsense');
var_dump($stmt);
$pdo = new PDO('sqlite:/tmp/foo.db',
'user', 'password',
array(PDO::ATTR_ERRMODE => PDO::ERRMODE_EXCEPTION));
$stmt = $pdo->prepare('some nonsense');
var_dump($stmt);
Expected result:
----------------
bool(false)
bool(false)
Actual result:
--------------
object(PDOStatement)#2 (1) {
["queryString"]=>
string(13) "some nonsense"
}
Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'PDOException' with message
'SQLSTATE[HY000]: General error: 1 near "some": syntax error' in
