note 66186 added to function.ob-end-clean

I am using output buffers to throw an exception during a database connect. Since the sybase_pconnect function does not throw an exception: // use output buffers to catch warnings on database connect ob_start() $this->dbh = sybase_pconnect($this->db_server,$this->db_user,$this->db_password); if (ob_get_length()>0 || $this->dbh===false) { throw new Database_LoginException("Could not login"); } ob_end_clean(); After trying to connect, it tests to see if the output buffer was written to (a warning) then cleans that and throws an exception. ---- Server IP: 216.194.113.175 Probable Submitter: 71.39.71.33 ---- X-Spam-Status: No, hits=3.1 required=5.0 tests=DATE_MISSING,FROM_NO_LOWER autolearn=no version=2.64 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.ob-end-clean.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/note/edit/66186 Del: integrated -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/66186/integrated Del: useless -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/66186/useless Del: bad code -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/66186/bad+code Del: spam -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/66186/spam Del: non-english -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/66186/non-english Del: in docs -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/66186/in+docs Del: other reasons-- http://master.php.net/note/delete/66186 Reject -- http://master.php.net/note/reject/66186 Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
