1.2.1190. Throw Raw Exceptions¶
Avoid throwing native PHP exceptions. Consider defining specific and meaningful exception, by extending the native one.
Thanks to Atif Shahab Qureshi for the inspiration.
<?php
// Throwing a raw exception
throw new exception('This is an error!');
class myException extends Exception {}
throw new myException('This is a distinguished error!');
?>
