I'd like to be able to catch die() and exit() messages. Is this possible? I'm hoping for something similar to set_error_handler and set_exception_handler. I've looked at register_shutdown_function() but it seems to contain no context for the offending die() and exit() calls.
I realize that die() and exit() are bad ways to handle errors. I am not looking to be told not to do this. :) I am creating a generic system and want to be able to gracefully log exit() and die() if for some reason someone (not me) decides this is a good idea to do.
As best as I can tell this is not really possible. Some of the solutions posted here may work but they require a lot of additional work or many dependencies. There is no way to easily and reliable trap the die() and exit() messages.
