Re: php5 methode + num parameters

Hi Yann, In my experience, PHP 4 only complains if you pass in too few arguments, not too many. If you would like an exception, you could try class MyException extends Exception {

    private $_msg;
    function __construct($msg = '';)
    {
        $this->_msg = $msg;
    }

    public function showError()
    {
        return 'ERROR ' . $this->_msg;
    }

} class FormElement { ... // variable declarations private function SetStyle($element_style) {

    if (func_num_args() > 1)
    {
        throw(new MyException('too many arguments'));
    }
    ... // normal code here

} } Regards, Greg -- phpDocumentor http://www.phpdoc.org Yann Larrivee wrote:

Hi i have the fallowing code (simplified) class FormElement { private $element_id = null; private $element_name = null; private $element_type = null; private $element_style = null; private $element_string = null; public function FormElement($properties) { $this->SetStyle($properties["default_style"],$properties["error_style"]); } private function SetStyle($element_style) {

    $this->element_style = $element_style;

} } Avisouly i pass it 2 parameters and it is expecting only 1. Usually PHP Bugs when this kind of thing happen right ? (php 4 anyways) But not in PHP5 it seems. Anybody else has experienced this problem ? Thanks
