Perl is to die as PHP is to ______
 

I'm just finishing up a script here and I realized that I have no idea how to completely halt execution of a script in php. Is there a way to do so like die() in perl?

As a little incentive, when I finish this script GFY gets a present :glugglug

exit

You rock.

exit()

http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.exit.php

dunno maybe you could write you own tho:
This is more or less what die does:

##Convert to php
sub die ($) {
print STDERR "$_\n";
exit(1);
}

die() also works in php.

Die is an error should technically be exit(1), although nobody ever checks the return code anyway lol.

Man I should have tried that before sucking myself out of productivity world and into GFY world. I may never make it back :helpme

Don't be bitter ;)

he asked how to completely hault a script. You can have the present if you would like it.

pie

mmmmm piiieeee

Where's the present?

cluck, I think you should read more about how PHP works before writing a script

exit;
is so very basic - you might be missing other important commands / techniques.


:2 cents:

Your right, although he DID ask how halt using die in his example.

So you dont just want to exit 0 out =)

Programming classes & books are good things.
