Re: Raising errors inside a constructor

Thank you for helping me understand that :) I must say all of these static calls on the ErrorStack introduction page confused me. Now, ErrorStack seems indeed powerful. I guess it's not too hard to make a base class that uses ErrorStack. Then I'd subclass it to be able to do the much more clearer : if ($berry->hasError()) , instead of this PEAR_ErrorStack::staticHasErrors('berry') thing that will confuse 90% of the people who read my code.

sub-classing is unnecessary. All you need to do is in the constructor add this line: $this->_stack = &PEAR_ErrorStack::singleton('berry'); And then you can write wrappers if you'd like. function hasError() {

    return $this->_stack->hasErrors();
