The same odd behaviour is in SQLite3 where the code below gives the output:

PHP Warning:  SQLite3::querySingle(): Unable to execute statement:  in /test/src/exceptionTest1.php
on line 11
Exception: test exception


<?php
function my_udf_md5($string) {
    throw new \Exception("test exception\n");
}

$db = new SQLite3('mysqlitedb.db');
$db->createFunction('my_udf_md5', 'my_udf_md5');

try {
    $result = $db->querySingle('SELECT my_udf_md5("test")');
    var_dump($result);
}
catch(\Exception $e) {
    echo "Exception: ".$e->getMessage();
}

Note that this same issue happens for array_reduce and array_filter, but not array_walk.

Unfortunately I have the same problem on PHP 5.5.16 from Ondrej's PPA (Ubuntu 14.04). This is
an inconsistent behavior as other functions like array_walk() or array_reduce() don't do that.

I've just come across this too and I'm really surprised at this inconsistent behavior, for
me the question isn't "what kind of situation needs throw a exception in map
function" but "why would the map function behave differently to any other situation".
 If you change array_map to array_walk in the original example then the exception propagates upward,
as expected.

At the very least, I'd expect to see a note on the PHP manual page warning users that
exceptions work differently for the callback parameter to array_walk.
