http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php -> useless!
PHP isn't crashing or something. PHP just outputs an error message where
no error is...
A simple example:
I get a "must not throw within __toString()"-Error in line 0
because a NULL-Value is supplied to a function where a integer is
expected. Fine.
This is the stack:
#0 mdx_driver->getInfo() called at ...
#1 mdx_driver->__toString() called at ....
#2 mdx_driver->__construct(mdx_error_handler, 10000000, Array ())
called at ...
...
This value is hold on class construct:
public function __construct($intern_name, $version, $config = array())
{
$this->_config = $config;
$this->_private = $config;
$this->_version = $version;
$this->_intern_name = $intern_name;
}
Before getInfo() is called, I put a
var_dump($this->_version);
And I get: NULL!!! But you can see, on construct $version is 1000000!
See the stack. There is not other method changing the value from
$_version. The value will change in NULL.
Other observations:
The $_version is declared and I get this error.
If $_version is generated by runtime, I get no error from this var.
Instead, the
next declared class variable will "recognized" as Null.
That I know: The error isn't specific. It can happening whereever the
situation is suitable and gives "not exists" or wrong-value-messages.
The error is a result of object-recursion and callbacks. When the call
will turn into a loop. PHP should crash or abort through canceling
call-loop at time limit. Instead various wrong error messages occur.

Anyway. It's there. If you like to get my files to see with own eyes, I
will do.
I would say it is a memleak. Caused by my code so there is my bug but
that shouldn't be possible and somebody could use it.

Description:
------------
Unfortanley, I cannot reproduce the code (expect I can send you the
files) so I can just describe whats going on:
I have registered a loader for some classes. These classes are container
for holding further classes of the same type. A simple tree structure.
Last I changed some static function in the class and wrote instead of
the self-keyword the classname, which also should work.
e.g.:
self::myfunction() to myclass::myfunction()
But the result was depending on script line and method after executing
the
affected class method:
"class not found in line 0" or (the same class was loaded few line
before without problems)
"undefined class constant xzy in line 0" (which was actually defined)
Changing the classname-word to self has solved the problem.
I have testing the script on Windows 5.3.0 and Unix 5.2.6 with the same
result.
