Examples

Example #1 Use set_error_handler() to change error messages into ErrorException.

<?php
function exception_error_handler(int $errno, string $errstr, string $errfile = null, int $errline) {
if (!(error_reporting() & $errno)) {
// This error code is not included in error_reporting
return;
}
throw new \ErrorException($errstr, 0, $errno, $errfile, $errline);
}
set_error_handler(exception_error_handler(...));
// Prior to PHP 8.1.0 and the introduction of the first class callable syntax, the following call must be used instead
// set_error_handler(__NAMESPACE__ . "\\exception_error_handler");

/* Trigger exception */
strpos();
?>

The above example will output something similar to:

Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'ErrorException' with message 'strpos() expects at least 2 parameters, 0 given' in /home/bjori/tmp/ex.php:12
Stack trace:
#0 [internal function]: exception_error_handler(2, 'strpos() expect...', '/home/bjori/php...', 12, Array)
#1 /home/bjori/php/cleandocs/test.php(12): strpos()
#2 {main}
  thrown in /home/bjori/tmp/ex.php on line 12
