Again sorry for resentment, thanks for clearing things up. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2012-09-19 10:33:07] laruence@php.net hmm, seems I thought wrongly, try { new AAAA(); } catch () { } can be catched in 5.3 but try { AAA:xxx(); } can not be catched in 5.3, but can be catched in 5.4. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2012-09-19 10:09:14] laruence@php.net and the 5.3.0+ seems should be 5.3+ (I mean 5.4 works fine). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2012-09-19 10:03:24] laruence@php.net http://us.php.net/autoload "Note: Prior to 5.3.0, exceptions thrown in the __autoload function could not be caught in the catch block and would result in a fatal error. From 5.3.0+ exceptions thrown in the __autoload function can be caught in the catch block, with 1 provision. If throwing a custom exception, then the custom exception class must be available. The __autoload function may be used recursively to autoload the custom exception class." ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2012-09-19 08:54:26] yks-uno at yandex dot ru And please would you mind to show the exact place in the PHP documentation where it is stated that an autoload handler ALWAYS DIES regardless of exceptions or substituting another class if it does not find the class it is trying to load? Or there is "no information available, might only be in SVN" ??? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
