I've written a PHPUnit test that checks if an exception is thrown from a closure when a method is invoked. The closure function is passed in as an argument to the method with an exception being thrown from it.
public function testExceptionThrownFromClosure()
{
try {
$this->_externalResourceTemplate->get(
$this->_expectedUrl,
$this->_paramsOne,
function ($anything) {
throw new Some_Exception('message');
}
);
$this->fail("Expected exception has not been found");
} catch (Some_Exception $e) {
var_dump($e->getMessage()); die;
}
}
The code for the get function specified on the ExternalResourceTemplate is
public function get($url, $params, $closure)
{
try {
$this->_getHttpClient()->setUri($url);
foreach ($params as $key => $value) {
$this->_getHttpClient()->setParameterGet($key, $value);
}
$response = $this->_getHttpClient()->request();
return $closure($response->getBody());
} catch (Exception $e) {
//Log
//Monitor
}
}
Any ideas why the fail assert statement is called? Can you not catch exceptions thrown from closures in PHP or is there a specific way of dealing with them I don't know about.
For me the exception should just propagate out the return stack, but it doesn't appear to. Is this a bug? FYI I'm running PHP 5.3.3
