Diagnostics needs improvement

roman, how do you call that PHPTAL thing? I get this from your code (I throw the code in the controller):

Code: Select all

class MainController extends DooController{
   function tal(){
      Doo::loadClass("lib/phptal");
      $tpl = new PHPTAL( Doo::conf()->SITE_PATH . Doo::conf()->PROTECTED_FOLDER . "view/repeatTest.html");
      $tpl->items = array(1=>"a", 2=>"b", 3=>"c", 4=>"d");
      $output = $tpl->execute();
      echo $output;
   }

I have the Exception

The way you called it, Leng, is essentially how I call it too; although, I don't use Doo::loadClass(). I include that file prior to instantiating an object. And I also have the main template file call a macro from another file.

Did you get that with the current framework code?

[leng]

yes with the latest. Maybe try loadClass.
Also, what does the code looks like?

And I also have the main template file call a macro from another file.

I think the issue i sometimes have with these stack traces is that you get told the error is in the run() method...but really its not. I have not tried var_dump'ing the exception to determine if this is all it knows or if there is a more accurate set of line info we could dump which would be of more use when debugging.

@leng, I have an exception handler somewhere here that might have some code for getting 'more info' out of exceptions...I'll try and dig it up and send you a copy.

@Richard that would be great, thanks in advance.

This is exactly the issue I've brought up here, Richard.

Leng, I haven't had time to try to use Doo::loadClass() yet. But it seems that Richard experiences the same problem I do even though he doesn't use PHPTAL. I will try to get to try Doo::loadClass() and see if I get different results. What's the benefit of using it over regular require or include, by the way?

[RichardM]

I dont think this actually has anything to do with the actual problem but is actually down to the fact that one persons code is invalid in one way and the other is invalid for another reason. Eg. One might have a variable name typo and the other has a syntax error. (This is not necessarily the case...rather just 2 examples I came up with).

I have sent leng on some code i got and modified a little from the php manual site so hopefully the information available from errors will improve some more soon.
