Re: __toString()

It is supported by "print" and for internal extensions such as SimpleXML which require this. Also in Java toString() isn't called automagically in every place so I wouldn't call it useless. Andi At 08:56 AM 12/14/2003 +0100, Sebastian Bergmann wrote:

The following code from PHPUnit stopped working after the recent changes to __toString()

     protected function printDefectTrace(PHPUnit_Framework_TestFailure
     $defect) {
         print $defect->thrownException() . "\n";

         print PHPUnit_Runner_BaseTestRunner::getFilteredStack(
           $defect->thrownException()
         );
     }

The

    print $defect->thrownException() . "\n";

line worked fine before and printed the result of

    $defect->thrownException()->__toString()

Is this the intended behaviour? -- Sebastian Bergmann
