I've just started using Try/catch and found the doc is a bit weak.
Best I can tell most, and likely all, our regular system functions do not "throw
" and an exception for the Exception handler.
Thus, you can put your code in a personal function, with a throw, or use the old
fashion way, e.g.,
if(!$data = file('http://myserver.com/myfile.txt'){
die(foo);}//if it's critical, or whatever if it's not
I've started using try/catch a lot and found it very useful.

I need to open a remote file with file() and I would like to put it
inside a try-catch but as far as I can tell file() does not raise an
exception if it fails. The following code:
try {
$data = file('http://myserver.com/myfile.txt');
$date = substr($data, 0);
} catch (Exception $e) {
$data = "it failed";
}
echo $data;
echoes a warning:
Warning: file('http://myserver.com/myfile.txt') [function.file]:
failed to open stream: HTTP request failed! HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found
