Hello all,
According to the PHP Manual, when require or require_once failes, an
E_ERROR is triggered: "require() and include() are identical in every way
except how they handle failure. include() produces a Warning while
require() results in a Fatal Error." (With 'Fatal Error' being a link to
E_ERROR).
Thing is, when using a custom error handler via set_error_handler(), it
appears to be triggering an E_WARNING, not an E_ERROR. Using PHP 5.1.4
under Linux.
There are one of three possibilities: I am suffering from a lapse in
lucidity (common), the manual is wrong (possible), or PHP is broken
somehow (unlikely). I'm guessing it's the first, but what am I doing
wrong? I'd like to get a second opinion before submitting a bug. I
searched bugs.php.net but was unable to find anything relevant for 5.1.4.
Code:
function default_error_handler($code, $error, $file, $line) {
switch ($code) {
case E_ERROR:
die ("Error: $error");
case E_WARNING:
die("Warning: $error");
default:
die("Something else entirely: $error");
}
}
set_error_handler('default_error_handler');
require('This file does not exist. At least not here!');
Result:
Warning: require(This file does not exist. At least not here!)
[function.require]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory
Expected Result:
Error: require(This file does not exist. At least not here!)
[function.require]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory
