php try … else

Question

Is there something similar in PHP to the try ... else in Python?

I need to know if the try block executed correctly as when the block executed correctly

Answer 1

You can use try { } catch () { } and throw. See http://php.net/manual/en/language.exceptions.php

try {
    $a = 13/0; // should throw exception
} catch (Exception $e) {
    echo 'Caught exception: ',  $e->getMessage(), "\n";
}

or manually:

try {
    throw new Exception("I don't want to be tried!");
} catch (Exception $e) {
    echo 'Caught exception: ',  $e->getMessage(), "\n";
}
