Re: Altering the error_reporting

couldn't a user-defined error handler work for this? http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.set-error-handler.php obviously it would require the script that has the error handler still be parsable.

and the OP specified exactly that ... a parse error. maybe a wrapper shell script around the php binary which stripped out the info from the error message, but it just seems silly. I still reckon it's more of a challenge just to get most of these 'students' to actually read anything that's burped out ... oh no its a cmdline, I can't read that it's all in black and white, where are the links? feel me? (your gf did ... just checking if your still reading ;-) ... actually that could be a fun way to test their observation skills random derogatory remarks replacing [parts of] error messages. or a swedish chef error handler: bork in file bork on line bork

but you get the info in the format: handler ( int $errno , string $errstr [, string $errfile [, int $errline [, array $errcontext ]]] ) you could print out the first two pieces, and not the last 3... On Wed, Sep 3, 2008 at 5:10 PM, Jochem Maas <jochem@iamjochem.com> wrote:

This seems like a futile activity. It's a waste of time to have to hunt down an error if you can be told where it is. I suggest spending time improving coding standards that error chasing.

besides, try grepping the archives for the number of posts that post errors which include the file and line number that ask what, why and where whatever is going wrong. finding someone on that level who actually reads the complete error message and attempts to act on it is a hard task by itself. :-D

I am looking for a way to alter the error_reporting(E_All) This displays Parse error: parse error, unexpected '}' in /var/www/html/test.php on line 7 I want to remove the file location and line number from the error to only produce Parse error: parse error, unexpected '}' Why? You may ask. I am writting a code tester in php but i do not want to display the "in" portion. This will make you find the error on your own. As a learning tool. Understand I have error reporting off in the php.ini file and call the errors in the php script with ini_set('display_errors', 1);. I am sure this is doable I just cant figure out how to do this without altering the php.ini file.
