Subject: Re: [PHP-DEV] Re: [RFC] Autoloader Error Handling
From: kassner@gmail.com (Rafael Kassner)

I think an autoloader can't be raise any kind of error. If the class
will be loaded by another autoloader on the stack and the first throws
an Exception, this will be a wrong behavior.
Indeed, if autoloader can't include the class, PHP throws a fatal
error, and you can avoid it using class_exists function that calls
autoloader by its own.
