Hi internals !
I came into a problem when writing an IDL to PHP5 language mapping
specification and an IDL to PHP5 language compiler. I'm using the community
OpenORB IDL-to-Java compiler as a base for writing the IDL-to-PHP5 compiler,
in fact, it is a translation from Java to PHP5. Everything is ok except the
"finally" clause wich doesn't exists in Zend Engine 2. I know that many of
you think that "finally" is useless but consider this case, and if anyone
have a simple and elegant solution without implementing "finally" I'll be
glad to listen.
The code would be like this if we had finally:
<?
...
$_input = null;
try {
$_output = $this->_request('bind',true);
org__omg__CosNaming__NameHelper::write($_output,$n);
$_output->write_Object($obj);
$_input = $this->_invoke($_output);
return;
} catch(org__omg__CORBA__portable__RemarshalException $_exception) {
continue;
} catch(org__omg__CORBA__portable__ApplicationException $_exception) {
$_exception_id = $_exception->getId();
if ($_exception_id ==
org__omg__CosNaming__NamingContextPackage__NotFoundHelper::id()) {
throw
org__omg__CosNaming__NamingContextPackage__NotFoundHelper::read($_exception-
>getInputStream());
}
if ($_exception_id ==
org__omg__CosNaming__NamingContextPackage__CannotProceedHelper::id()) {
throw
org__omg__CosNaming__NamingContextPackage__CannotProceedHelper::read($_excep
tion->getInputStream());
}
if ($_exception_id ==
org__omg__CosNaming__NamingContextPackage__InvalidNameHelper::id()) {
throw
org__omg__CosNaming__NamingContextPackage__InvalidNameHelper::read($_excepti
on->getInputStream());
}
if ($_exception_id ==
org__omg__CosNaming__NamingContextPackage__AlreadyBoundHelper::id()) {
throw
org__omg__CosNaming__NamingContextPackage__AlreadyBoundHelper::read($_except
ion->getInputStream());
}
throw new org__omg__CORBA__UNKNOWN("Unexpected User Exception:
$_exception_id");
} catch(Exception $_exception) {
throw $_exception;
} finally {
$this->_releaseReply($_input);
}
...
?>
Since we don't have finally, the current code is:
<?
...
$_input = null;
try {
$_output = $this->_request('bind',true);
org__omg__CosNaming__NameHelper::write($_output,$n);
$_output->write_Object($obj);
$_input = $this->_invoke($_output);
$this->_releaseReply($_input); //PHP still does not have FINALLY !!!
return;
} catch(org__omg__CORBA__portable__RemarshalException $_exception) {
$this->_releaseReply($_input); //PHP still does not have FINALLY !!!
continue;
} catch(org__omg__CORBA__portable__ApplicationException $_exception) {
$_exception_id = $_exception->getId();
if ($_exception_id ==
org__omg__CosNaming__NamingContextPackage__NotFoundHelper::id()) {
$this->_releaseReply($_input); //PHP still does not have FINALLY
!!!
throw
org__omg__CosNaming__NamingContextPackage__NotFoundHelper::read($_exception-
>getInputStream());
}
if ($_exception_id ==
org__omg__CosNaming__NamingContextPackage__CannotProceedHelper::id()) {
$this->_releaseReply($_input); //PHP still does not have FINALLY
!!!
throw
org__omg__CosNaming__NamingContextPackage__CannotProceedHelper::read($_excep
tion->getInputStream());
}
if ($_exception_id ==
org__omg__CosNaming__NamingContextPackage__InvalidNameHelper::id()) {
$this->_releaseReply($_input); //PHP still does not have FINALLY
!!!
throw
org__omg__CosNaming__NamingContextPackage__InvalidNameHelper::read($_excepti
on->getInputStream());
}
if ($_exception_id ==
org__omg__CosNaming__NamingContextPackage__AlreadyBoundHelper::id()) {
$this->_releaseReply($_input); //PHP still does not have FINALLY
!!!
throw
org__omg__CosNaming__NamingContextPackage__AlreadyBoundHelper::read($_except
ion->getInputStream());
}
$this->_releaseReply($_input); //PHP still does not have FINALLY !!!
throw new org__omg__CORBA__UNKNOWN("Unexpected User Exception:
$_exception_id");
} catch(Exception $_exception) {
$this->_releaseReply($_input); //PHP still does not have FINALLY !!!
throw $_exception;
}
$this->_releaseReply($_input); //PHP still does not have FINALLY !!!
...
?>
IMHO, I think that replicating the finally code at the end of every catch
block, before every throw/return statement and at the end of the try/catch
statement justify the need of "finally".
If there is another aproach without "finally" and without code redundancy, I
really need it.
Best Regards,
