PHP Bug Type: SimpleXML related
Bug description: can't catch simplexml error
Description:
------------
Cannot catch a simple loading error when using simplexml_load_string()
loading an invalid xml string.
I understand that that E_WARNING, E_ERROR etc are not exceptions but
realisticlly, I expect a loading function to throw an exception when it
fails to load a object, not a uncatchable "warning". It also be invalid to
say this error class is a "warning" as it is most definitely an error.
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
try {
$x = simplexml_load_string("adfasdf");
print_r($x);
}
catch (Exception $e) {
echo "toast";
}
?>
Expected result:
----------------
toast
Actual result:
--------------
Warning: simplexml_load_string(): Entity: line 1: parser error : Start tag
expected, '<' not found in...
Warning: simplexml_load_string(): adfasdf in...
Warning: simplexml_load_string(): ^ in...
