So, instead of coding like this: ... $res = some_builtin_func(); // func does not raise exception on error if (!$res) throw new Exception(); // so I throw it manually ... I want to write: ... $res = some_builtin_func(); // func raises exception on error // so I don't need to write additional lines ... So will PHP5 (or future versions) work as in my 2nd example? -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
