What are the potential compatibility issues between using custom autoload functions and Smarty in PHP projects?

When using custom autoload functions in PHP projects, there may be compatibility issues with Smarty due to conflicts in class loading mechanisms. To solve this, you can modify the custom autoload function to check if the class being loaded is a Smarty class and handle it accordingly. 

spl_autoload_register(function($class) {
    if (strpos($class, 'Smarty') === 0) {
        $smartyClassFile = 'path/to/smarty/libs/' . str_replace('_', '/', $class) . '.php';
        if (file_exists($smartyClassFile)) {
            require_once $smartyClassFile;
        }
    } else {
        // Your custom autoload logic here
    }
});
