#33062 [NEW]: include kills script after parse error

From: vdlaag at natlab dot research dot philips dot com Operating system: n.a. PHP version: Irrelevant PHP Bug Type: Documentation problem Bug description: include kills script after parse error Description: ------------ When I try to include a file with a parse error. PHP stops execution at the parse error. However, the online manual for include states the following: "Be warned that parse error in required file doesn't cause processing halting." I am using Zend Studio 4 to write my PHP scripts. And when I debug the page the debugger picks up the parse error, but execution continues. And then I get the desired output. I found bug #28330 in the bug database describing the same problem. The conclusion was that it was not a bug. But the behaviour contradicts the manual. Reproduce code: --------------- <?php class Try { private $old_track_errors; public function __construct() { $this->old_track_errors = ini_get('track_errors'); } public function requireWithError($file) { ini_set('track_errors', true); echo "So far so good"; include($file); echo "This message is not shown"; $error = isset($php_errormsg) ? $php_errormsg : false; ini_set('track_errors', $this->old_track_errors); return $error; } } $test = new Try(); $test->requireWithError('fileWithParseError.php'); ?> This is 'fileWithParseError.php'. <?php class TestCaseWithParseError { wibble } ?> Expected result: ---------------- I expect to see the message "So far so good", then the parse error, and then the message "This message is not shown". Actual result: -------------- I just see the message "So far so good", then the parse error. The message "This message is not shown" is indeed not shown -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=33062&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (php4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33062&r=trysnapshot4 Try a CVS snapshot (php5.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33062&r=trysnapshot50 Try a CVS snapshot (php5.1): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33062&r=trysnapshot51 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33062&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33062&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33062&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33062&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33062&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33062&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33062&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33062&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33062&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33062&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33062&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33062&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33062&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33062&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33062&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33062&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33062&r=mysqlcfg
