http://php.net/oop5.magic#language.oop5.magic.tostring needs an updated before 5.2.0. #1 Can't throw exceptions anymore #2 Is called 'wherever it's appropriate' (e. printf("__toString: %s", $obj)) If language.exceptions will be updated to note where exceptions can't be thrown it'll need to note lot more then just __toString() Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-05-21 05:27:56] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Description: ------------ >From zend_object_handlers.c: zend_error(E_ERROR, "Method %v::__toString() must not throw an exception", ce->name); This is due the recent changes that from now on __toString will be called everywhere an object is used in a string context.
