note 117146 added to function.exit

A side-note for the use of exit with finally: if you exit somewhere in a try block, the finally won't be executed. Could not sound obvious: for instance in Java you never issue an exit, at least a return in your controller; in PHP instead you could find yourself exiting from a controller method (e.g. in case you issue a redirect). Here follows the POC: <?php echo "testing finally wit exit\n"; try { echo "In try, exiting\n"; exit; } catch(Exception $e) { echo "catched\n"; } finally { echo "in finally\n"; } echo "In the end\n"; ?> This will print: testing finally wit exit In try, exiting ---- Server IP: 72.52.91.14 Probable Submitter: 149.62.65.94 ---- Manual Page -- http://php.net/manual/en/function.exit.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/117146 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/117146/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/117146/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/117146/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/117146/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/117146/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/117146/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/117146 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/117146 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
