Hi Dan, Dan Ackroyd wrote:
Regarding the example: $condition || throw new Exception('$condition must be truthy') && $condition2 || throw new Exception('$condition2 must be truthy'); The "Deprecate left-associative ternary operator"* RFC made it so that parentheses are required when ternary operators are nested in complicated statements. Would a similar requirement for parentheses around complicated throw expressions be a suitable solution to avoid people being surprised by the behaviour? cheers Dan Ack * https://wiki.php.net/rfc/ternary_associativity
Is there a strong reason to require parentheses? I would think we can just give throw an appropriate precedence so that expressions like the above do what is desired — and then if you wanted to do something unusual, you would have to add parentheses anyway. Regards, Andrea
