Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2016-01-29 20:14:45] zaq178miami at gmail dot com Description: ------------ In debug mode, when we define return type info as object and specify class for it, e.g. ZEND_BEGIN_ARG_WITH_RETURN_TYPE_INFO_EX(test_arginfo, ZEND_RETURN_VALUE, 0, IS_OBJECT, "ClassName", 0) ZEND_END_ARG_INFO() and then throw exception from function, e.g. PHP_FUNCTION(test) { if (zend_parse_parameters_none() == FAILURE) { return; } zend_throw_exception(zend_exception_get_default(), "Test exception", 0); } we have fatal error "Fatal error: Return value of test() must be an instance of ClassName, null returned in Unknown on line 0" While allow_null set to 1 fixes this problem, it is clearly a bug, while after exception thrown, method returned value not used, so no type check after exception should be performed (debug mode affected only). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=71485&edit=1
