Catch fatal error

[theuser26]

Hello guys.

 

Is it possible to catch a fatal error and then do something?

 

What I need to do is to catch the error and run the script a second time, before the first execution ends.

 

Kind regards and thanks for advance.

No, it is not possible. Fatal errors are exactly that: fatal.

 

(There are, however, catchable fatal errors. Those are different. But you'll know if you encounter them.)

Use triggers and E_RECOVERABLE_ERROR or E_ERROR

Contrary to popular belief, E_ERRORs cannot be caught. Period.

 

Example:

function errorhandler($errlvl, $errmsg) {
$levels = array(E_ERROR => "E_ERROR", E_WARNING => "E_WARNING", E_NOTICE => "E_NOTICE");
echo "Caught a $levels[$errlvl]: $errmsg\n";
}
set_error_handler("errorhandler");

nosuchfunction();

Fatal error: Call to undefined function nosuchfunction() in X on line Y
