However, there is a difference between this code and the case when no error handler is set at all. This code breaks error_get_last(). See https://3v4l.org/nvNsr I suggest this code to be changed into if (!(error_reporting() & $errno)) { // This error code is not included in error_reporting return false; } Because that would emulate the exact same behavior as when no error handler is set at all: https://3v4l.org/cp5l0 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=73892&edit=1
