Re: [PHP] Short circuit evaluation and include

include and include_once dont throw fatal exception.

You should use require or require_once and catch the exception with try{}catch{} block



anceo@xxxxxxxxx a écrit :
include and require are not functions.

They are language constructs.

They probably don't "return values" nor short-circuit in the usual way.

Ditto for "echo"

If you can strip the parens and have it still work, it's for sure not a function.

<?php
include_once $file;
echo $file;
?>

is perfectly valid code.

PS
All those disk calls are going to get pretty expensive if your site gets heavy traffic...
You may want to just write a custom error_handler and use include_once which will let you trap the error and do something intelligent with it...
