[PHP] ErrorException and set_exception_handler()
Hello randallgirard Since the bug tracker isn't really a discussion forum, lets move it to the General PHP User List (which is a discussion forum). Regarding bug#50446[1] you filed, either I am misunderstanding what you are hoping to achieve or you are misunderstanding the expected behavior/documentations. As far as I can tell; you are expecting the ErrorException class to be some sort of magical exception which turns normal E_USER_* errors into exceptions, without actually behaving like exceptions (i.e. stopping program execution if not caught). If you have a exception handler registered (via set_exception_handler()) and there is no try/catch block around the code that triggered the exception (doesn't matter where the exception is thrown, from set_error_handler() or regular code), then the exception handler will kick in. After the exception handler has done its job PHP will stop the execution of the script. No matter what. There are no exceptions to that. On uncaught exceptions (i.e. not caught via catch() blocks) PHP *will* stop execution of the script. There are multiple reasons for that, including: * How should PHP know where to return to? If an exception was thrown inside an method, which was called in a function from global scope; Where do you expect PHP to continue from? Global scope? From the function that called the method? From the method that threw the exception? * Exceptions are thrown when there is something very very wrong. If the application doesn't know how to handle that particular type of exception (via a catch() block) then the application has no fallback procedure in place. PHP has no other resort then to stop the execution of the script. * The ErrorException isn't treated specially from PHP point of view. Its just another exception type, like InvalidArgumentException, ErrorExeption, BadMethodCallException, LogicException, RuntimeException, UnexpectedValueException. There is no technical difference between the exceptions or any other built-in exception classes. The built-in exceptions (SPL has a good chunk) simply suggest a standard naming convention for exceptions to use (to simplify the catch() clauses in applications for example). Those exceptions will be treated just as any other exceptions, so you must catch them if you want to deal with them and continue the script execution. If you want to turn all your E_USER_* errors into exceptions then you absolutely can. If you prefer to throw an exception when something internally emits E_* errors (for example, invalid parameters to functions) you can. But you still have to catch() those exceptions. The only reason why the ErrorException exists is because many people in the past complained over the fact PHP didn't stop execution when internal function emitted E_* errors (such as sending array to a function that expects an string). Now you can throw exceptions on such errors. Simply create an error handler and make it throw Exception (ErrorException maps nicely to the information contained in normal E_* errors, as it contains the error message, the errors code(E_*), severity (fatal error/recoverable error/warning/notice/), the filename it occurred, and line number. Note: You still need to catch the exception if you want to continue the program flow. I don't quite understand your comment about E_USER_* errors being useless. I use those error levels extensively when I can't to inform the caller that something happened, but I could still do the job the caller expected. I personally do not use exceptions for my application flow (*I* consider it extremely bad practice). If I want to inform the caller/developer that something I had to guess what he wanted, or if something skeptical/wrong happend, I throw E_USER_* errors. My main error handler is actually the set_error_handler(). My default exception handler calls back to my error handler, as my error handler allready deals with sever error conditions. Hope it this post shed some light on ErrorException and set_exception_handler(). If not, please reply-to-all with your questions (I CCed php-general@lists.php.net on this post, which is a discussion list). -Hannes [1] http://bugs.php.net/50446 -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

On Fri, Dec 11, 2009 at 23:39, Randall Girard randallgir...@hotmail.com wrote: Okay, my mistake. E_USER_WARNING and E_USER_NOTICE are supposed to continue execution, correct? Correct. Then I will restate what I previously said. throwing ErrorException from an No no. Stop there. Exceptions are *totally* different from E_*. ERROR_HANDLER(...) is useless iwht E_USER_WARNING and E_USER_NOTICE. Why? Because when you throw the exception from the ERROR_HANDLER, presumably it may NOT get caught in a try/catch block. Therefor the execution cannot continue. Exactly. And that is the point. Why would you be turning E_USER_* into exceptions if you don't want to bail out of the current scope? If you throw an exception from the error handler, what exactly do you expect to happen? I gave several reasons for why that simply is impossible, but I am curious: what exactly are you expecting? Therefor, I think that either a check to see if the TRY/CATCH has been initiated further up the call stack, or a function to call from within the EXCEPTION_HANDLER that will return execution to the previous scope. I don't see how this is difficult to understand. So you expect a scripting language to scroll up the entire execution chain to see if there is a catch() block at all, and if there is no catch() block, the simply ignore the exception and continue? If thats your expectations then you are severely misunderstanding the concept of exceptions. Please do reply-all.

I wanted to see if anyone has an easier way to do this. The end result
is this: I need to compare 7 different text strings(which are in an

should be outputted saying they weren't.
How would one do this outside of using a huge if/then statement?

Two approaches come to mind off the top of my head:
$values = array_count_values($array);
if (count($values)1):
// there's more than one unique value in the array
endif;
or...
$value = $array[0];
for ($i=1; $i7; ++$i):
if ($array[$i]!= $value):
// this value doesn't match
break;
endif;
endfor;

The PHP script runs as the Apache user, which is generally 'nobody', so
it probably doesn't have permission to execute the requested command.

I think you're getting your terminology mixed up. $row2 is an array
