SQLite3::enableExceptions — Enable throwing exceptions
public SQLite3::enableExceptions(bool $enable = false): bool
Controls whether the SQLite3 instance will throw exceptions or warnings on error.
enable When true, the SQLite3 instance, and SQLite3Stmt and SQLite3Result instances derived from it, will throw exceptions on error.
When false, the SQLite3 instance, and SQLite3Stmt and SQLite3Result instances derived from it, will raise warnings on error.
For either mode, the error code and message, if any, will be available via SQLite3::lastErrorCode() and SQLite3::lastErrorMsg() respectively.
| Version | Description |
|---|---|
| 8.3.0 | Calling SQLite3::enableExceptions() with enable as false will trigger a E_DEPRECATED warning. |
Example #1 SQLite3::enableExceptions() example
<?php
$sqlite = new SQLite3(':memory:');
try {
$sqlite->exec('create table foo');
$sqlite->enableExceptions(true);
$sqlite->exec('create table bar');
} catch (Exception $e) {
echo 'Caught exception: ' . $e->getMessage();
}
?> The above example will output something similar to:
Warning: SQLite3::exec(): near "foo": syntax error in example.php on line 4 Caught exception: near "bar": syntax error
