Re: How to use Exceptions with MDB2

Hello! Many methods of MDB2 return a PEAR_Error object. Is it possible to throw an exception instead?

You can write your own PEAR error handler which throws exceptions but I do not suggest this. MDB2 is a PHP4 package which assumes that error handling is done in a PHP4 way. It is possible that if you throw exceptions that some internal logic in MDB2 would be incorrectly skipped when an error happens.

I've tried to do PEAR::setExceptionHandling(PEAR_ERROR_EXCEPTION) but the exception that is thrown is't handled and I get the warning "PEAR_ERROR_EXCEPTION is obsolete, use class PEAR_Exception" Thanks, Bjoern -- PEAR General Mailing List (http://pear.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
