#48825 [NEW]: Namespace throws fatal error if any exception is handled within a class

From: shiva dot buzz at gmail dot com Operating system: Windows VISTA PHP version: 5.3.0 PHP Bug Type: *General Issues Bug description: Namespace throws fatal error if any exception is handled within a class Description: ------------ I ran a small example for namespace. I found one Fatal error when the namespace was been used. If you pass a invalid email id, that is 'alejandrodomain.com ' $user = new UserManager\CMS\User('Alejandro','Gervasio','alejandrodomain.com '); it throws a fatal error saying Exception class can not be found. PHP Fatal error: Class 'UserManager\CMS\Exception' not found in C:\user\user.php on line 25 I used the same example listed below with little change; http://www.devshed.com/c/a/PHP/Using-Namespaces-in-PHP-5/3/ Could you let me know why namespace is not able to recognize the Exception class. Reproduce code: --------------- Filename: user.php <?php namespace UserManager\CMS; class User{ private $firstName; private $lastName; private $email; public function __construct($firstName,$lastName,$email){ if(!$firstName||strlen($firstName)>32){ throw new Exception('Invalid First Name parameter!'); } if(!$lastName||strlen($lastName)>32){ throw new Exception('Invalid Last Name parameter!'); } if(!$email||!preg_match("/^.+@.+..+$/",$email)){ throw new Exception('Invalid Email parameter!'); } $this->firstName=$firstName; $this->lastName=$lastName; $this->email=$email; } // get user's first name public function getFirstName(){ return $this->firstName; } // get user's last name public function getLastName(){ return $this->lastName; } // get user's email public function getEmail(){ return $this->email; } ?> RunUser.php <?php include_once "user.php"; use UserManager\CMS; try{ // create new instance of 'User' class by using the specified namespace $user = new UserManager\CMS\User('Alejandro','Gervasio','alejandrodomain.com'); // display user data echo 'First Name: '.$user->getFirstName().'<br />'; echo 'Last Name: '.$user->getLastName().'<br />'; echo 'Email: '.$user->getEmail().'<br />'; $user->getValueN(); } catch(Exception $e){ echo $e->getMessage(); exit(); } ?> Expected result: ---------------- Invalid Email parameter Actual result: -------------- PHP Fatal error: Class 'UserManager\CMS\Exception' not found in C:\user\user.php on line 25 -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=48825&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.2): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48825&r=trysnapshot52 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.3): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48825&r=trysnapshot53 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 6.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48825&r=trysnapshot60 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48825&r=fixedcvs Fixed in CVS and need be documented: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48825&r=needdocs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48825&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48825&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48825&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48825&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48825&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48825&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48825&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48825&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48825&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48825&r=php4 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48825&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48825&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48825&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48825&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48825&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48825&r=mysqlcfg
