New Comment:
For now we've had to use this workaround:
<?php
class Ex1 extends Exception { }
class Ex2 extends Exception { }
class Ex3 extends Exception { }
try {
throw new Ex3("Ex3");
} catch (Exception $e) {
if ($e instanceof Ex1)
echo ("Ex1: " . $e->getMessage() . "\n");
else if ($e instanceof Ex2)
echo ("Ex2: " . $e->getMessage() . "\n");
else if ($e instanceof Ex3)
echo ("Ex3: " . $e->getMessage() . "\n");
else
echo ("Exception: " . $e->getMessage() . "\n");
}

Still NOT fixed in latest CVS (6 Mar)
I think, it is very important to fix for users working intensively with
exceptions ?!

Description:
------------
If an exception is thrown within a try block and more than two catch
blocks follow, the exception may not be caught. If the exception
matches either of the first two catch blocks then the exception will be
caught. However, if the exception does not match the first two catch
blocks, it will skip any remaining catch blocks and remain uncaught.
In the code below, the exception is caught properly if the second catch
block is commented out. Once it is included again though, the
exception is not caught.
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
class Ex1 extends Exception { }
class Ex2 extends Exception { }
class Ex3 extends Exception { }
try {
throw new Ex3("Ex3");
} catch (Ex1 $e) {
echo ("Ex1: " . $e->getMessage() ."\n");
} catch (Ex2 $e) {
echo ("Ex2: " . $e->getMessage() ."\n");
} catch (Exception $e) { // Note: trying to catch Ex3 also fails
echo ("Exception: " . $e->getMessage() . "\n");
}
exit(0);
?>
Expected result:
----------------
Execption: Ex3
Actual result:
--------------
Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'Ex3' with message 'Ex3'
exception.php:8
Stack trace:
#0 {main}
thrown in exception.php on line 8
