Bug description:SPL autoload issues Fatal Error if a handler throws exception
Description:
------------
If a handler is registered for autoloading (whether via
spl_autoload_register() or __autoload()) and it throws an exception when a
class is not found, the exception can not be caught as usual if a method of
the target class is statically called. Instead, a Fatal Error: Class not
found is issued (which is quite what the autoloader is meant to avoid!)
Yet, when, e.g. trying to access a static field of that class, the
exceptions get caught correctly.
Tested on several PHP versions (5.3.3 - 5.3.10) on Linux and FreeBSD.
Test script:
---------------
<?
function x($class)
{
print "xxx\n"; // gets printed
throw new Exception("Class '{$class}' not found");
}
spl_autoload_register('x');
try {
$a = A::z(); // FATAL ERROR: class 'A' not found
// NOTE:
// $a = A::$z; - will be correctly caught
} catch (Exception $ex) {
print "{$ex}\n"; // never gets executed
}
Expected result:
----------------
xxx
exception 'Exception' with message 'Class 'A' not found' in <FILE>:5
---
this is what gets output in case the exception is caught
Actual result:
--------------
xxx
Fatal error: Class 'A' not found in <FILE> on line 10
