Thank you for your help. Why does it matter if the class was declared literally in the try/catch
block? The documentation states "exceptions thrown in the __autoload function can be caught in
the catch block". It works for the base class, but not extended classes.
Other exceptions thrown outside of a try/catch always propagate back to the caller's try/catch
such as the below. In these examples, the exception is caught, but the exception is thrown outside
of the literal try/catch.
<?php
function __autoload($class)
{
throw new Exception('abcd');
}
try
{
test1::go();
}
catch (Exception $e)
{
echo 'caught';
exit;
}
=================================================
<?php
function test()
{
throw new Exception('abcd');
}
try
{
test();
}
catch (Exception $e)
{
echo 'caught';
exit;
}
=================================================
<?php
class test1
{
public static function go()
{
throw new Exception('abcd');
}
}
try
{
test1::go();
}
catch (Exception $e)
{
echo 'caught';
exit;
}

Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not
a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at
http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to
report
a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php
try the following example, you may found why this is expected:
<?php
function __autoload($class)
{
throw new Exception('abcd');
}
try
{
class test1 extends test2
{
public static function go()
{
}
}
test1::go();
}
catch (Exception $e)
{
echo 'caught';
exit;
}

Description:
------------
This issue may be the same issue as bug 65254 that I just submitted. The following script throws a
Fatal Error rather than catching the exception.
Test script:
---------------
<?php
function __autoload($class)
{
throw new Exception('abcd');
}
class test1 extends test2
{
public static function go()
{
}
}
try
{
test1::go();
}
catch (Exception $e)
{
echo 'caught';
exit;
}
Expected result:
----------------
caught
Actual result:
--------------
Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'Exception' with message 'abcd' in
/tmp/test.php:4
Stack trace:
#0 /tmp/test.php(8): __autoload('test2')
#1 {main}
thrown in /tmp/test.php on line 4
