Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php . Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-04-06 18:43:25] perching_eagle at yahoo dot com Description: ------------ the compiler ought to bypass exceptions in "try" blocks, and allow a "catch block" to catch the exception at runtime. in other words, "try" blocks should turn compile-time errors to run-time errors. try blocks shouldn't depend on the throw keyword before throwing exceptions, errors in try blocks should automatically cause exceptions to be thrown. otherwise the current Exception class is only as good as this statement "if(class_exists(Book)){//main code} else{//warning code}" for the code in my example. Reproduce code: --------------- <?php try{ $err=new Book(); //class Book does not exist //more code } catch(Exception $e){ print "class does not exist"; exit(); // or throw another exception that ends the program //in another block. } Expected result: ---------------- output:(should look like this) class does not exist (python and java behave like this, i hope there will be some consistence in logic, among open source languages ) Actual result: -------------- program does not compile, error message: Fatal error (actually says Fatel error), class 'Book' not found on C:/XXXX/XXX ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=41012&edit=1
