From: davidc at blesys dot com Operating system: (doesn't apply) PHP version: 5.0.0b3 (beta3) PHP Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Bug description: NullPointerException desired
Description: ------------ I desire a NullPointerException to be thrown, like in Java. Currently, a fatal error triggers, stopping my entire application. Many times an object may be null, but the application can continue. In addition, if an exception were thrown, I could trace it to see why the exception occured. Reproduce code: --------------- $j=null; $j->someMethod(); Expected result: ---------------- Fatal error: Call to a member function someMethod() on a non-object in file.php on line 2 -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=26789&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (php4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26789&r=trysnapshot4 Try a CVS snapshot (php5): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26789&r=trysnapshot5 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26789&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26789&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26789&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26789&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26789&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26789&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26789&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26789&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26789&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26789&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26789&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26789&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26789&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26789&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26789&r=float
