Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php When unserialize() fails (shouldn't normally) it throws E_NOTICE to allow you to see/log the problem. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-03-14 08:21:39] lsole at maresme dot net I think I've misunderstood what the error control operator was sending to my custom error handling. I thought it was sending a zero error code but what it does is to set error_reporting() to zero. Sorry! Anyway, I wonder if it is not a bug that unserialize() throws an E_NOTICE error if the input is not unserializable. The function description says it should return FALSE but says nothing about throwing errors. As an example, base64_decode() does not throw errors if the input can't be decoded. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-03-13 13:42:17] lsole at maresme dot net Description: ------------ @unserialize() throws E_NOTICE with custom handler Reproduce code: --------------- <?php function myErrorHandler($errno, $errmsg, $filename, $linenum) { if ($errno == 0) return; $error_type = array(0 => 'No Error', 8 => 'Notice'); // just the ones we need... echo '<b>' . $error_type[$errno] . '</b>: ' . $errmsg . ' in <b>' . $filename . '</b> on line <b>' . $linenum . '</b><br>' . chr(10); } $a = 'abc123'; error_reporting(E_ALL); $b = unserialize($a); // throws error because $a is not unserializable if ($b === false) {echo 'failed!<br>';} else {echo $b . '<br>';} $b = @unserialize($a); // @ suppresses error if ($b === false) {echo 'failed!<br>';} else {echo $b . '<br>';} set_error_handler('myErrorHandler'); $b = unserialize($a); // throws error because $a is not unserializable if ($b === false) {echo 'failed!<br>';} else {echo $b . '<br>';} $b = @unserialize($a); // should throw nothing but throws Notice! if ($b === false) {echo 'failed!<br>';} else {echo $b . '<br>';} ?> Expected result: ---------------- E_NOTICE errors should not happen when prepending @: the custom handler should receive $errno = 0 Actual result: -------------- E_NOTICE error ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=27588&edit=1
