ID: 52339 Updated by: [email protected] Reported by: dangerous dot ben at gmail dot com Summary: SPL autoloader breaks class_exists() -Status: Open +Status: Bogus Type: Bug Package: SPL related Operating System: any (debian) PHP Version: 5.3.3RC2 New Comment: You are calling class_exists() with just a class name, which leaves the second parameter ($autoload) set to true, which then invokes SPL and throws the exception, so no bug here Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-07-14 21:54:08] dangerous dot ben at gmail dot com On further investigation, it appears that the error is meant to happen only if spl_autoload is called directly, and not via spl_autoload_call. Unfortunately when spl_autoload is the only autoloader in the stack it gets called directly and spl_autoload_call doesn't get a look in. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-07-14 21:31:46] dangerous dot ben at gmail dot com Description: ------------ Using PHP 5.3 from svn. When SPL's default autoloader is the only loader in the stack it triggers an error or throws an exception when it can't find a class. This means that you get an exception when calling class_exists() for a class that doesn't exist. This behaviour seems pointless anyway since PHP will trigger its own fatal error if the class still doesn't exist after attempting to autoload, so the attached patch simply removes it. Test script: --------------- spl_autoload_register(); class_exists('foo\bar'); Expected result: ---------------- No error Actual result: -------------- b...@arctor:~/src/php-5.3$ sapi/cli/php ~/code/cram/test.php PHP Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'LogicException' with message 'Class foo\bar could not be loaded' in /home/ben/code/cram/test.php:4 Stack trace: #0 [internal function]: spl_autoload('foo\bar') #1 /home/ben/code/cram/test.php(4): class_exists('foo\bar') #2 {main} thrown in /home/ben/code/cram/test.php on line 4 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=52339&edit=1
