I am simply trying to put a arithmetic expression around try-catch block.
Here's what I tried:
try
{
$result = 4/0;
}
catch (Exception $e)
{
d($e->getMessage());
}
But instead of printing $e->getMessage(), it is displaying Internal Server Error Division By Zero which is similar if I don't use any try-catch.
What am I doing wrong?
You can't catch DivisionByZeroError on normal arithmetic because PHP considers it a warning, not an error. Instead you need to set an error handler to look for it e.g.
function handler($errno, $error) {
if ($error == "Division by zero") {
echo "Error $errno! $error\n";
return;
}
// hand processing back to the standard handler
return false;
}
set_error_handler('handler');
$result = 4/0;
Output:
Error 2! Division by zero
Note that the error handler should return control to the standard handler (by returning false) if this is not the error you were looking for.
You got to use this:
try
{
$result = intdiv(4, 0);
}
catch(DivisionByZeroError $e)
{
d($e->getMessage());
}
PHP manual : http://php.net/manual/en/class.divisionbyzeroerror.php (Works with PHP 7 onwards)
Update: Using intdiv() - Integer division (Works with PHP 7 onwards)
Internal Server Error despite of all the updates. is it working on yours as expected?
