I very much like the idea of making fatal errors exceptions, so: thumbs up! Is there a way to introduce different exception classes for different errors. E.g. - UndefinedMethodException for stdClass::method() - NullPointerException for null::method() - UndefinedFunctionException for invalid_function() - etc. They could all extend EngineException to have a common base class but I am sure we could find good abstractions for an exception inheritance tree. What do you think? cu, Lars
