Ah. Okay. I guess I was confused by: > 1) convert the non continuable E_ERRORs to a higher severity (if there > are any at all) So what you're saying is that some problems that are classified (by a developer) as E_ERRORs aren't actually fatal to PHP even though right now PHP treats them as such. (Like an E_ERROR for passing the wrong number of parameters to a function.) But, since these problems are probably still "very bad," they're the type of errors that are best handled by exceptions. Therefore, you propose to promote non-recoverable errors to E_FATAL (or whatever) and keep the recoverable E_ERRORs where they are. Then, when an E_ERROR occurs, it's thrown as an exception? (I'm not sure if you're saying this.) If the developer catches it, they handle it. If they don't, PHP catches it and issues a fatal error. -adam -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] author of o'reilly's php cookbook avoid the holiday rush, buy your copy today! -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
