Hi,

the @ Error Control Operator doesnt suppress warnings (e.g.:E_WARNING),
if an own error handler is declared.

the follow code snip demonstrate the problem:

<?php
error_reporting(E_ALL);
function error_handler ($errno, $errstr, $errfile, $errline) {
	echo "$errstr <br>in $errfile<br>line $errline<br>";
}

$old_error_handler = set_error_handler('error_handler');

$dbconnect=@mysql_pconnect('foobar-server', 'bart', 'simson');
?>

I think this is a bug, because this behavior is not documented.


Regards,

Steve

Not a bug. If @ is used, error_reporting is set to 0.
You need to take care of it yourself in your error handler
function if you don't want to show errors in that case.

This is done this way to let users have as much control
as possible in their own error handlers.

And it is documented here:
