error_reporting

(PHP 3, PHP 4 )

error_reporting -- set which PHP errors are reported

Description

int error_reporting ( [int level])

The error_reporting() function sets the error_reporting directive at runtime. PHP has many levels of errors, using this function sets that level for the duration (runtime) of your script.

error_reporting() sets PHP's error reporting level, and returns the old level. The level parameter takes on either a bitmask, or named constants. Using named constants is strongly encouraged to ensure compatibility for future versions. As error levels are added, the range of integers increases, so older integer-based error levels will not always behave as expected.

Some example uses:

範例 1. error_reporting() examples

 ?php

// Turn off all error reporting
error_reporting(0);

// Report simple running errors
error_reporting  (E_ERROR | E_WARNING | E_PARSE);

// Reporting E_NOTICE can be good too (to report uninitialized 
// variables or catch variable name misspellings ...)
error_reporting (E_ERROR | E_WARNING | E_PARSE | E_NOTICE);

// Report all errors except E_NOTICE
// This is the default value set in php.ini
error_reporting (E_ALL ^ E_NOTICE);

// Report all PHP errors (bitwise 63 may be used in PHP 3)
error_reporting (E_ALL);

// Same as error_reporting(E_ALL);
ini_set ('error_reporting', E_ALL);
