That's definitely confusing, but more confusing to me is labeling the
fatal error as "catchable", which definitely implies a try / catch
block should handle it.
Maybe they should call it a "handleable" fatal error :) ... implying
it can be managed with set_error_handler().

This looks like a great idea -- I was thinking I'd have to give up the
convenient flow control involved in exception handling, but this
should bring it back nicely.

Re: [PHP] Exception not being caught
There are many examples of error_handlers at
http://ar.php.net/manual/es/function.set-error-handler.php
The handler only have to cast the error to exception.
YOu can write a simple handler or a fully featured one, but the essence is
the same...
function errorHandler(/*args*/)
{
$e = new Exception( $message, $code );
throw $e;
}

It's not an exception, it's a "fatal error". Fatal errors are caught
by error handling functions, not by catch blocks.
Consequence of having (at least) two separate error handling
mechanisms in the same language.

[PHP] Exception not being caught
So, I've got a little piece of code designed to play with catching the exception that's thrown when an object doesn't have a __toString method. This does not run as expected. I'd think that when the implicit string conversion in the try block hits, the exception would be thrown, caught by the catch block, and relayed. Instead you don't ever see the words "exception caught" and you get "Catchable fatal error: Object of class A could not be converted to string." If it's catchable, why isn't it caught in my example?
