Your continue is not correct in this context. Which error do you get ?

L5: Catch exception in class
I am building a REST API which handles csv file uploads.
Basically, i am trying to check if a string is valid for DateTime constructor and in case its not, respond with an error instead of throwing an exception.
Here is what the code looks,
Inside a foreach loop
try {
$date = new \DateTime('2013-10-30 - 12:08:32'); // invalid format
} catch (Exception $e) {
$errors[] = 'Invalid purchase date format';
continue;
}
Issue is the execution skips this step and jumps to App\Exceptions\Handler.
Is there a way i could prevent it from doing so?

Add the exception you don't want to be reported to the
protected $dontReport = [
'Symfony\Component\HttpKernel\Exception\HttpException'
];
array in /app/Exceptions/Handler.php

@bestmomo - Edited the post to reflect that the code is inside a foreach loop

Just checked it in L5 and it works for me.

@bestmomo - What exactly did you try?

@swarajgiri I try that :
try {
$date = new \DateTime('2013-10-30 - 12:08:32'); // invalid format
} catch (Exception $e) {
dd('I am here');
}

Yes it should work, exception handler gets in when an exception isnt caught.

@bestmomo - Tried that on the first line of a controller. Still get the whoops screen with the exception.

@swarajgiri I tried in routes file... but you're right, in controller doesn't work.

@bestmomo - Problem of the missing \. \DateTime instead of DateTime. (facepalm)
try {
$date = new \DateTime('2013-10-30 - 12:08:32'); // invalid format
} catch (\Exception $e) {
dd('I am here');
}
