Why does include bomb when the path does not exist?

[Richard Catto]

require is supposed to bomb when it can't find the path, but include is supposed to carry on.

Fat free bombs out when an include fails to load the path

Please show us the code where/how this is happening and the exact error message.

[xfra35]

Both functions trigger an error, but require triggers an E_ERROR while include triggers an E_WARNING.

F3 sets error_reporting to (E_ALL|E_STRICT)&~(E_NOTICE|E_USER_NOTICE), which means that all errors apart from notices are intercepted.

Bcosca made it clear that this is intentional.

Anyway nothing prevents you from modifying the error_reporting just after calling base.php:

$f3 = require('lib/base.php');
error_reporting((E_ALL|E_STRICT)&~(E_WARNING|E_NOTICE|E_USER_NOTICE));

Thanks.
