Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-08-28 09:59:59] derick@php.net Description: ------------ When throwing an exception from a __set() method a strange fatal error is shown. I would expect to see the uncaught exception error. Even if I put a try/catch around the $impl = new impl() line the same error is thrown. It seems like you can not throw exceptions if __set() is used through the constructor. Reproduce code: --------------- <?php abstract class abs { private $properties = array(); public function __set( $name, $value ) { throw new Exception( "doesn't work" ); } public function __get( $name ) { throw new Exception( "doesn't work" ); } } class impl extends abs { public function __construct() { $this->counter++; } } $impl = new impl(); ?> Expected result: ---------------- The uncaught exception fatal error. Actual result: -------------- Fatal error: Couldn't execute method impl::__set in Unknown on line 0 Call Stack: 2.6910 262144 1. {main}() /home/derick/-:0 2.6911 262144 2. impl->__construct() /home/derick/-:25 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=38624&edit=1
