Looks like a duplicate of https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=50085 which outlined this as documentation problem. No idea why this is a documentation problem. Test script: --------------- $e = new Exception("test\0me"); echo $e->getMessage(); Expected result: ---------------- output (not displaying non-printable characters): testme Actual result: -------------- output (not displaying non-printable characters): test ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=60569&edit=1
