PHP Bug Type: Documentation problem
Bug description: require() raises E_WARNING before E_ERROR
Description:
------------
It appears that the require and require_once functions raise an E_WARNING
before raising an E_ERROR. This is inconsistent with the documentation
which implies that only an E_ERROR is raised when require fails.
"The two constructs are identical in every way except how they handle
failure. include() produces a Warning while require() results in a Fatal
Error."
Code below tested with PHP versions 4.4.2 on RedHat Linux and 5.1.4 on
Ubuntu Linux. Same result.
Reproduce code:
---------------
function default_error_handler($code, $error, $file, $line) {
switch ($code) {
case E_WARNING:
echo "Warning: $error";
break;
default:
echo "Something Else: $error";
}
}
set_error_handler('default_error_handler');
require('This file does not exist. At least not here!');
Expected result:
----------------
Fatal error: require(): Failed opening required 'This file does not exist.
At least not here!' (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in
/home/kermode/test.php on line 12
Actual result:
--------------
Warning: require(This file does not exist. At least not here!): failed to
open stream: No such file or directory
Fatal error: require(): Failed opening required 'This file does not exist.
At least not here!' (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in
/home/kermode/test.php on line 12
