Bug description: Warning When Handling Exception in a usort Callback Function
Description:
------------
If the callback function used by usort handles an exception using a
try/catch block, a warning is generated. The correct sorting is still done.
This happens even when the exception & handling doesn't involve the
variables.
The example below is the usort example from the manual with only the
try/catch block added. Reproducible in PHP 5.2.11 but not 5.2.9
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
function cmp($a, $b)
{
if ($a == $b) {
return 0;
}
try {
throw new Exception();
} catch (Exception $E) {
}
return ($a < $b) ? -1 : 1;
}
$a = array(3, 2, 5, 6, 1);
usort($a, "cmp");
Expected result:
----------------
No warning message.
Actual result:
--------------
PHP Warning: usort(): Array was modified by the user comparison function
