In our script, we have a critical section where this object must die if an error occurs : <? // begin of critical section $foo->setErrorHandling(PEAR_ERROR_DIE); // ... doing critical things // end of critical section. previous error handler must be reactivated, but, hey, who is it ? $foo->setErrorHandling(?); ?> Solution : setErrorHandling() must return a "thing" which handle the previous error handling state. <? // begin of critical section $previousErrorHandlingState = $foo->setErrorHandling(PEAR_ERROR_DIE); // ... doing critical things // end of critical section. previous error handler must be reactivated, and we know it. $foo->setErrorHandling($previousErrorHandlingState); ?> ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=22296&edit=1
