#32370 [Fbk->Bgs]: Object Constants

ID: 32370 Updated by: helly@php.net Reported By: codebowl at gmail dot com -Status: Feedback +Status: Bogus Bug Type: Class/Object related -Operating System: Windows XP Pro SP 2 +Operating System: * PHP Version: 5.0.3 New Comment: 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 The code part that deals with consts is correct as the test script below shows. I guess you are accessing both through 'error_type' of $this->_tpl if that's the case rethink your logic. If not rethink what you thought was the error and check your code again. --TEST-- Bug #32370 (Object Constants) --FILE-- <?php class SvEx extends Exception { const ERR_TYPE = "Unknown Error"; const ERR_DESC = "There has been an error."; protected $_msg; protected $_error; public function __construct($error = null) { $this->_error = array( 'type' => self::ERR_TYPE, 'description' => self::ERR_DESC ); $this->_msg = $error; parent::__construct($this->_msg); } public function getType() { return $this->_error['type']; } public function getDesc() { return $this->_error['description']; } } class ApplicationEx extends SvEx { const ERR_TYPE = "Application Error"; const ERR_DESC = "An Application Error!"; public function __construct($msg = null) { parent::__construct($msg); $this->_error['type'] = self::ERR_TYPE; $this->_error['description'] = self::ERR_DESC ; } } try { throw new SvEx(); } catch(Exception $e) { echo "Type: " . $e->getType() . "\n"; echo "Desc: " . $e->getDesc() . "\n"; } try { throw new ApplicationEx(); } catch(Exception $e) { echo "Type: " . $e->getType() . "\n"; echo "Desc: " . $e->getDesc() . "\n"; } ?> ===DONE=== --EXPECT-- Type: Unknown Error Desc: There has been an error. Type: Application Error Desc: An Application Error! ===DONE=== Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-03-19 12:17:02] tony2001@php.net Could you provide a smaller. but still working & complete reproduce script, please ? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-03-19 00:58:23] codebowl at gmail dot com http://codebowl.dontexist.net/source/SvEx.phps is the url to the SvEx class file, there was a typo with the Sc part of the filename. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-03-19 00:57:01] codebowl at gmail dot com Description: ------------ I have 2 class files, one that extends the built in Exceptions class and one that extends this class Built In Exceptions | | +- SvEx Class | | +- ApplicationEx Class The problem lies in class constants. The SvEx class and Application Class both have thier own constants named ERR_TYPE and ERR_DESC for some reason when i throw an ApplicationEx Exception it is using the constants from the SvEx Exception class. Reproduce code: --------------- You can see the code files here http://codebowl.dontexist.net/source/ScEx.phps http://codebowl.dontexist.net/source/Application.phps http://codebowl.dontexist.net/source/Trigger.phps Expected result: ---------------- I would expect that it would set the $this->_error['type'] and ['desc'] with the appropriate constant values. When i throw an ApplicationEx it should use the ApplicationEx::ERR_TYPE etc.. Everything else set's properly such as the error message blah blah, you can see an example of the results here http://codebowl.dontexist.net/clients/JVMedia/SimonVolkov/global.php Actual result: -------------- For some reason it is setting them to the values in the SvEx Exception Class ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=32370&edit=1
