If 5.2, DateTime::__construct triggers an error, not an exception. Test script: --------------- <?php set_error_handler('dummy'); try { $date = new DateTime('not a date'); } catch (Exception $e) { die("\ncaught exception"); } die("\ndying"); function dummy() { echo "\ndummy function"; } ?> Expected result: ---------------- "caught exception" Actual result: -------------- "dummy" ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=51317&edit=1
