From: p at nic dot com dot pl
Operating system: linux
PHP version: 5.2.8
PHP Bug Type: Feature/Change Request
Bug description: catch doesn't allow for an empty statement
Description:
------------
catch requires empty {} and not just ";"
Reproduce code:
---------------
try { statement } catch (exception); is not allowed: PHP Parse error:
syntax error, unexpected ';', expecting '{'
Expected result:
----------------
try { statement } catch (exception); should work (catch exception, do
nothing) exactly like try { statement } catch (exception) {}; does.
