Edit report at http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=52155&edit=1 ID: 52155 Comment by: olamedia at gmail dot com Reported by: olamedia at gmail dot com Summary: Change fatal_error to fatal_error_exception Status: Open Type: Feature/Change Request Package: Scripting Engine problem PHP Version: 5.3.2 New Comment: Which types of "fatal errors" we can replace with throw exception (and write to log/mail to/show custom html): 1. out of memory - cleanup $GLOBALS and calling GC before (to free up memory) 2. compile error - when trying to include, require or eval 3. call to undefined function - that's simpler as above, like use of undefined variable Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-06-23 11:10:14] olamedia at gmail dot com Description: ------------ It is almost impossible now to handle fatal errors. Of course there are exists some ways (shutdown handler or ob_start): http://eirikhoem.wordpress.com/2008/03/15/dying-with-grace-phps- register_shutdown_function/ I think, that replacing message "Fatal error" with something like "FatalErrorException" is possible and follows use case of exceptions. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=52155&edit=1
