Hi Derrick,

I know that. Why is a thrown exception in __autoload() or one that
raises through it fatal? Why can't it raise like any other exception?

I guess this is not possible due to the special nature of the
__autoload() hook. Nevertheless I think it's a bug (missing feature, if
you want), since at the moment any exceptions thrown in code invoked by
__autoload() must be caught in __autoload() to prevent a fatal error. I
think this narrows the possibilities of creative users.

In my special case __autoload() includes files that produce warnings
(i.e. deprecated 'var'). Additionally I wrote an error handler which
throws exceptions rather than displaying the error.

Result: Thrown exception causes fatal error in __autoload, which then
again throws an error and makes php crash. I haven't completely
analyzed this behaviour yet though.

Please reconsider this matter.

Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not
a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at
http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report
a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php

fatal errors can not be caught by your own error handler - no bug here.

Description:
------------
When an exception gets thrown in __autoload() my custom error handler
is ignored and a PHP uncaught exception fatal error is displayed
instead. Additionally the occuring fatal error message is not as nice
as a regular uncaught exception error would be (no trace).

This bug *seems* to be related to
http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=26591&edit=2 . I am still reporting it,
since it still occurs with the latest snapshot version (20050202133,
today 13:30) and is reproduced differently.

My config line:

'./configure' '--with-xslt' '--enable-sockets'
'--with-apxs2=/usr/local/apache2/bin/apxs' '--enable-fastcgi'
'--with-libxml' '--with-openssl' '--enable-ftp' '--with-gd'
'--with-pgsql=/usr/local/pgsql' '--with-zlib-dir=/usr/lib/'
'--disable-cgi' '--disable-magic-quotes' '--with-jpeg-dir=/usr/lib/'
'--with-dom' '--with-dom-xslt'
'--with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql-standard-4.0.23-pc-linux-i686'

No other special changes have been made. XDebug and APC are installed
but *not* enabled in my php.ini.

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
function my_handler($e) {
        echo 'My custom Handler: '.$e->getMessage().'<br/>';
}

function regular_function() {
        throw new Exception('Regular function exception!');
}

function __autoload($class_name) {
        throw new Exception('__autoload function exception!');
}

set_exception_handler('my_handler');

/* attempt 1: */ regular_function();
/* attempt 2: */ $test = new Test(); // invoking __autoload()
?>

Expected result:
----------------
attempt 1: 'My custom Handler: Regular function exception!'
attempt 2: 'My custom Handler: __autoload function exception!'

Actual result:
--------------
attempt 1: 'My custom Handler: Regular function exception!'
attempt 2: 'Fatal error: Function __autoload(Test) threw an exception
of type 'Exception' in /home/smartloader/htdocs/proof.php on line 22'
