From: public at syranide dot com Operating system: PHP version: 5.2.2 PHP Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Bug description: Mechanism for trapping fatal errors
Description: ------------ Something I've been longing to see is a way to catch fatal errors so that PHP doesn't print out errors to the clients or worse, nothing at all. Obviously this isn't possible as the engine might be in an unstable state and it would be unsafe to continue. But I figure if the internals of PHP can handle it, would it not be possible to upon fatal errors run a pre-defined script filename (settable via iniset/putenv as well) using a new instance of the engine with the error available (perhaps the backtrace as well) in $_SERVER or wherever? So that you could apply your own error logging and output. So instead of: runscript IF fatalerror THEN printfatal END You would get something like: runscript IF fatalerror THEN runhandler IF fatalerror THEN printfatal END END This would be a blessing for both custom debugging functionality, giving clients useful errors and being able to log these actions using custom utilities (most people don't have access or log php errors in the http-log). As in fact, the common fatal errors are that you have called a non-existant function, worked on a bad object or put in a bad character and not the engine going rogue. -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=41418&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 4.4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41418&r=trysnapshot44 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.2): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41418&r=trysnapshot52 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 6.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41418&r=trysnapshot60 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41418&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41418&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41418&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41418&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41418&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41418&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41418&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41418&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41418&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41418&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41418&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41418&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41418&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41418&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41418&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41418&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41418&r=mysqlcfg
