How to have PHP kill a script upon a function call without necessary arguments?

[velocd]

In simple terms, take this function:

function my_function($foo, $stuff)
{
    echo 'good';
} 

If I execute this function without any of the parameters, which as you can see don't have default values, PHP will throw an error at me--but continue to execute the script.

How can I change this behavior to have PHP kill the script?

Yes, I could add into the function something like:

if (!$foo || !$stuff)
{
    exit;
} 

But.. I'm sure there is a PHP environment setting or the like to control it.

Thanks in advance if you can help.

I think what you want is something like this:

if (!isset($foo) || !isset($stuff)) 
{ 
    exit; 
}

You could use the

die; 

statement and print an error with it when the script execution dies right then and there e.g.

function myfunc($foo, $zoo) {
    if(!isset($foo || !isset($zoo){
        die('Invalid arguments passed!');
    } else {
        //your other code here...
    }
}

I'm aware of those methods, but I was hoping for a quick solution, a php.ini setting or the sort, instead of having to embed error checking code in each of my custom functions (I've got more than 30 of 'em).

Hm.
