Hello !
In PHP 5.4 alpha, an exception is throwing if a subclass of
\DirectoryIterator not called the parent constructor.
Moreover, this exception can not be catched in the constructor of the
subclass.
This behavious seems to be a good idea, because \DirectoryIterator may
be in an inconsistant state if the parent constructor is not called.
But i think that it's not a good idea, because it's a BC break.
It's not the case in 5.3 and i have unit test cases which fail by this
new behavior, because moked \DirectoryIterator class does not call the
parent constructor.
In context of unit test, the fact that \DirectoryIterator is
inconsistant may be not a problem and can be the desired behavior.
There is a bug report : https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=55300
Best regards,
Fred
