RE: [PHP-DEV] exceptions question

You should not use exceptions for program logic. Exceptions are use to handle exceptional cases and the overhead of handling an exception may be quite expensive. At least on other languages. So, what is the overhead of throwing exceptions in PHP? Is it as expensive as in .Net or C++? -----Original Message----- From: Greg Beaver [mailto:greg@chiaraquartet.net] Sent: Tuesday, July 08, 2003 1:30 PM To: internals@lists.php.net Subject: [PHP-DEV] exceptions question Hi, In experimenting with exceptions, I notice that throw() always jumps to the first catch() (as expected), and there is no way to return to the line after the throw(). Are we forced to use trigger_error() or some custom function for this kind of exception, or is there a way to tell PHP 5 "go back, the exception is fixed"?
