ParseError extends Error 

Syntax errors are the first to be warned by the system and are system-level exceptions. As soon as the system warns, the entire program has never been run.

First of all, you must understand that exceptions and errors are different. Exceptions are situations outside of normal logic, while errors refer to errors during runtime! Once an error occurs, the entire code will no longer be executed and your program will hang. If an exception occurs, you can use try catch to catch it, and the program can continue to run!

Obviously, your code has a syntax error, so this program cannot be executed at all, which means that you triggered an error instead of an exception. So how to achieve the effect you want? First we need to solve the syntax problem, look at the code below

    error_reporting(-1);
    ini_set('display_errors', 1);

    set_error_handler(function(){
        echo "error handler execute";
    }, E_ALL);

    set_exception_handler(function(){
        echo "exception handler execute";
    });

    register_shutdown_function(function(){
        echo "shutdown function execute";
    });

    try{
        echo $a;
    }catch(exception $e){
        echo "catch exception";
    }
