Summary: Fatal error raised by var_export() not caught by error
handler
Status: Assigned
Type: Bug
Package: Scripting Engine problem
Operating System: Debian Etch
PHP Version: 5.2.13

New Comment:
I am curious if the bug OP expects the var_export() output to never
end... ever? I do, because it is a recursive reference, so I'm puzzled
that this is considered a bug.
However, perhaps the solution would be to not throw a fatal error, but
throw a notice or warning and/or provide some way of telling
var_export() how deep to print.

Description:
------------
When a fatal error is raised by var_export() when trying to export a
resursive array, it is not caught by a user php error handler.
Test script:
---------------
function myErrorHandler($errno, $errstr, $errfile, $errline)
{
var_dump($errno, $errstr, $errfile, $errline);
/* Don't execute PHP internal error handler */
return true;
}
set_error_handler("myErrorHandler");
$recursive = array();
$recursive[] = &$recursive;
var_export($recursive);
Expected result:
----------------
The var_dumped variables
Actual result:
--------------
array ( 0 => array ( 0 => array ( 0 => array ( 0 => array (
