Use the http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.libxml-get- errors.php et al. functions available since 5.1 for catching xml errors. We won't change anything in the way it's done right now. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-10-14 05:25:30] xing at mac dot com Description: ------------ Cannot catch a simple loading error when using simplexml_load_string() loading an invalid xml string. I understand that that E_WARNING, E_ERROR etc are not exceptions but realisticlly, I expect a loading function to throw an exception when it fails to load a object, not a uncatchable "warning". It also be invalid to say this error class is a "warning" as it is most definitely an error. Reproduce code: --------------- <?php try { $x = simplexml_load_string("adfasdf"); print_r($x); } catch (Exception $e) { echo "toast"; } ?> Expected result: ---------------- toast Actual result: -------------- Warning: simplexml_load_string(): Entity: line 1: parser error : Start tag expected, '<' not found in... Warning: simplexml_load_string(): adfasdf in... Warning: simplexml_load_string(): ^ in... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=39157&edit=1
