Question

I’m having trouble finding my way around Zend Framework documentation.

I’m currently using the “query” member function of the Zend_Db_Adapter_Pdo_Mysql class, and want to find out what exceptions it might throw. I’ve looked at http://framework.zend.com/apidoc/core/Zend_Db/Adapter/Zend_Db_Adapter_Abstract.html#query , however there seems to be no info about it there. Oh I’m using version Zend Framework 1.10.

The Zend_Exception documentation says:

The documentation for each Zend
Framework component and class will
contain specific information on which
methods throw exceptions, the
circumstances that cause an exception
to be thrown, and the various
exception types that may be thrown.

You are looking at the wrong API documentation. You need to look at the docs for Zend_Db_Adapter_Pdo_Abstract query method, which Zend_Db_Adapter_Pdo_Mysql extends – and an exception is mentioned there:

throws: Zend_Db_Adapter_Exception To re-throw PDOException.
