I don't know how to throw an error/exception from inside the core of Zend2. I have some code to throw an exception/error from extensions... > However with that last change the thing would be ok from my point of view. > Perhaps you could also add an interface for that function as sterling once > suggested.

I modified the code to just call to_string if the object implements the "printable" interface. But I don't know how and where to register the interface in ZE2. Are there any interfaces registered inside ZE2? I cound't find any... If you could point me some code to dig... Cristiano Duarte
