Summary: __autoload fails to throw exception when calling a
static method on the class
Status: Open
Type: Bug
Package: Scripting Engine problem
Operating System: Windows
PHP Version: 5.3.3
Block user comment: N
New Comment:
Temporary solution.
Caveats and notices:
- The class actually WILL BE DEFINED ANYWAY;
- 'eval' usage;
- __callStatic used to avoid "method not found" error.
<?php
function __autoload($className)
{
echo "Want to load $className.\n";
// assuming we can not load class
// error handling code
{
eval('class ' . $className . ' { static function __callStatic($n,
$a) { return false; } }');
throw new Exception("Unable to load $className.");
}
}
try
{
//new MissingClass(); // works as expected
MissingClass::someFunction();
}
catch (Exception $e)
{
echo 'CAUGHT: ' . $e->getMessage(), "\n";
}

Same on Ubuntu 10.04 / Apache 2.2 and CLI mode
Test script:
---------------
<?php
spl_autoload_register(
function($autoload) {
throw new Exception();
}
);
try {
Foo::bar();
} catch(Exception $e) {
echo "Exception caught\n";
}
?>
Expected result:
----------------
Exception caught
Actual result:
--------------
Fatal error: Class 'Foo' not found in /home/daniel/www/other/php-bug.php
on line 0

Description:
------------
I've tried to do the following:
1. Wrote and autoload method, that throws an exception.
3. Made a static call on a non-existing class within a try block.
Tried this on windows 7 / Apache 2.2 / PHP 5.3.3.
Test script:
---------------
<?php
function __autoload($class_name) {
throw new Exception($class_name);
}
try {
Application::start();
// new Application(); works fine
} catch (Exception $ex) {
var_dump($ex);
}
Expected result:
----------------
The script should var_dump() an exception with the Message 'Application'
as it does when instantiating a class.
Actual result:
--------------
The script dies with Fatal error: Class 'Application' not found.
