#47097 [Asn]: DomainException documentation problem: insufficient description

ID: 47097 User updated by: me at signpostmarv dot name Reported By: me at signpostmarv dot name Status: Assigned Bug Type: Website problem PHP Version: Irrelevant Assigned To: helly New Comment: I suppose the problem is that there are a few too many definitions of "Domain" :-s Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-01-14 15:10:48] me at signpostmarv dot name I've no idea :-P Perhaps ask whoever added DomainException to SPL in the first place ? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-01-14 14:29:13] bjori@php.net Your are totally right. And there is a good reason for that: We have no idea what its useful for :) Marcus: Could you enlighten us? :) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-01-14 12:55:00] me at signpostmarv dot name Description: ------------ "A domain exception" doesn't appear to be a particularly useful description for the intended usage of the Exception class, when compared to the other descriptions: BadFunctionCallException * Exception thrown if a callback refers to an undefined function or if some arguments are missing BadMethodCallException * Exception thrown if a callback refers to an undefined method or if some arguments are missing etc... Expected result: ---------------- A sufficient explanation of the intended use of the DomainException class, more in line with the descriptions of the other Exception classes provided via the SPL. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=47097&edit=1
