Implementation Guidelines

  • Exception-Driven: Prefer throwing exceptions over returning false.
  • Throwable Interface: Catch Throwable for both Errors and Exceptions.
  • Custom Exceptions: Extend RuntimeException for domain-specific errors.
  • Multi-catch: Use catch (TypeA | TypeB $e) for identical handling.
  • Finally Cleanup: Use finally to ensure resource release.
  • Global Handling: Set set_exception_handler in entry points.
  • PSR-3 Logging: Log critical faults using standard loggers.

Anti-Patterns

  • Error Suppression: No @: Avoid suppressing errors with @.
  • Silent Catch: No Empty Catches: Log or handle all caught exceptions.
  • Logic Flow: No Flow Control: Don't use exceptions for expected logic.
  • Panic Display: No display_errors: Log to file, never to production screen.
