Custom error handling

[Alvaro G Vicario]

I've created my own function for error handling using set_error_handler().
My problem is that, when using copy() to copy files, I can't suppress
system's error messages. So when I'm trying to copy a file that does not
exist I get two error messages: mine and system's.

I've tried the @ operator with no luck: @copy(...)

Apart from adding extra checks so copy() never returns an error or using
system(), is there a way to replace all error messages with mine?

It is important to remember that the standard PHP error handler is
completely bypassed. error_reporting() settings will have no effect and
your error handler will be called regardless - however you are still
able to read the current value of error_reporting and act
appropriately. Of particular note is that this value will be 0 if the
statement that caused the error was prepended by the @ error-control
operator.

So, in your callback function, check if the current error_reporting()
level (when the error is triggerred) is 0-- if so, ignore that
error--so that your @ operator will work.

I need a deeper look on manual. This piece of code inside my error handler
did the trick:

if(error_reporting()==0){
return;
}

Thanks a lot.
