Error handler

[Jaggi]

Will ipb3 be using php's new throw/catch Exception errors to handle errors in the application or will it continue to use its existing method. If not is it something you'd be willing to think about given its advantages?

To be honest, there are few real advantages to exceptions when you boil it down. However to answer your questions, we do use exceptions where we feel it is appropriate for the most part (e.g. at the model parts of the code not intended to directly interact with the view).

i think its biggest advantage is you don't have to write something to catch errors as its already there for you, but yea that sounds like a start and please use proper error strings this time rather than one string for 50,000 errors :P.
