How can a user-defined function handle critical errors such as E_ERROR, E_PARSE, and E_CORE_ERROR in PHP?
To handle critical errors such as E_ERROR, E_PARSE, and E_CORE_ERROR in PHP, you can create a custom error handler function using the set_error_handler() function. Within this custom error handler function, you can check the type of error and handle it accordingly, whether by logging it, displaying a message to the user, or taking other appropriate actions.
// Custom error handler function
function customErrorHandler($errno, $errstr, $errfile, $errline) {
// Handle the error based on its type
switch ($errno) {
case E_ERROR:
// Handle E_ERROR
break;
case E_PARSE:
// Handle E_PARSE
break;
case E_CORE_ERROR:
// Handle E_CORE_ERROR
break;
default:
// Handle other errors
break;
}
}
// Set custom error handler
set_error_handler("customErrorHandler");
// Trigger a critical error
// For example, trigger_error("This is a critical error", E_ERROR);
