[mapserver-users] how to throw exception for failed ms_newMapObj

[jim white]

Hi,

My PHP MapScript sometimes fails to create a new map object. I would 
like to be able to handle this occurrence, and send a notice to the user 
that there has been an error and they don't have to wait for a page that 
is not going to load. The script just fails at the $map = 
ms_newMapObj($mapfile) line and stops. How to throw an exception when 
this happens?

Thanks,
Jim
