#47981 [Csd]: error handler not called regardless

ID: 47981 User updated by: oliver dot graetz at gmx dot de Reported By: oliver dot graetz at gmx dot de Status: Closed Bug Type: Scripting Engine problem Operating System: Windows Vista x64 SP1 PHP Version: 5.2.9 Assigned To: bjori New Comment: If I analyzed the diffs of the last snapshots correctly, the this issue was more esoteric the I imagined, since my test triggered the only use of E_STRICT happening at compile time, that therefore did not use php_error_docref(). Note to self: This problem is very loosely connected to http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=41461 because the E_STRICT is not triggered when not implementing an (empty or non-empty) interface.

Errors of type E_STRICT will only trigger the custom error handler function if error_reporting explicitly includes them. This clearly means that error_reporting() settings HAVE an effect. Personally, I think this is an error in PHP and that the behaviour of PHP should be changed to fit the description in the documentation but from the current point this is at least a documentation problem. Reproduce code: --------------- // --- file 'errorhandler.php' -------------------------------- <?php $errormap = array( E_WARNING=>'E_WARNING', E_NOTICE=>'E_NOTICE', E_STRICT=>'E_STRICT' ); function handleError($errno,$errstr,$errfile,$errline,$errcontext) { echo "$errno (".$GLOBALS['errormap'][$errno].": $errstr\n"; } set_error_handler('handleError'); // --- file 'tester.php' -------------------------------------- <?php include 'errorhandler.php'; error_reporting(E_ALL); $x=5/0; //E_WARNING echo $not_set; //E_NOTICE //E_STRICT interface a{} class b implements a { function f($a=1) {}} class c extends b {function f() {}} Expected result: ---------------- 2 (E_WARNING: Division by zero 8 (E_NOTICE: Undefined variable: not_set 2048 (E_STRICT: Declaration of c::f() should be compatible with that of b::f() Actual result: -------------- 2 (E_WARNING: Division by zero 8 (E_NOTICE: Undefined variable: not_set ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=47981&edit=1
