## #6439 — Sebastian Bergmann — 2003-12-14T07:56:15+00:00

URL: https://externals.io/message/6439#6439

The following code from PHPUnit stopped working after the recent changes
  to __toString()

     protected function printDefectTrace(PHPUnit_Framework_TestFailure
     $defect) {
         print $defect->thrownException() . "\n";

         print PHPUnit_Runner_BaseTestRunner::getFilteredStack(
           $defect->thrownException()
         );
     }

  The

    print $defect->thrownException() . "\n";

  line worked fine before and printed the result of

    $defect->thrownException()->__toString()

  Is this the intended behaviour?
