Shouldn't my above code behave the same way as this code? Code: ----- function shutdown() { var_dump('SHUTDOWN'); } register_shutdown_function('shutdown'); throw new Exception('my exception'); Output: ------- Exception: my exception in ... string(8) "SHUTDOWN" The only code difference is that in the original code the exception was thrown from within the error handler. AND that in the original code the shutdown function was not called.) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-07-21 12:58:08] jani@php.net This is really documentation issue. You can't call _any_ user callbacks (f.e. using call_user_func() & such) when there are uncaught exceptions. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-07-21 12:50:35] jani@php.net One more thing: The shutdown func WILL be run. As long as there are no uncaught exceptions left. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
