Hi.
Given the relatively simple code below, why can't I throw an exception
in __toString()?
<?php
class AlwaysFails {
public function asString() {
throw new Exception('Failed in asString()');
}
public function __toString() {
throw new Exception('Failed in __toString()');
}
}
$failure = new AlwaysFails;
try {
echo $failure->asString();
}
catch(Exception $ex) {
echo $ex->getMessage();
}
try {
echo $failure;
}
catch(Exception $ex) {
echo $ex->getMessage();
}
?>
outputs ...
Failed in asString()
Fatal error: Method AlwaysFails::__toString() must not throw an
exception in Z:\fa1.php on line 21
