The most typical usage is with stack, queue or collection, for example when you queue tasks, make call stack or manipulate JSON, XML, etc. elements.

As other exepctions of RuntimeException class, this type of error can't be detected in (for example) your IDE or compiler.

<?php
// Functions declared above 
$f1 = function() { setTypeControl('username');};
$f2 = function() { setTypeControl('userpass');};
$f3 = function() { setButton('Add');};
$f4 = function() { setButton('OK');};

$tasks = new class {
    private $list;

    // Create internal queue
    public function __construct() {
        $this->list = new SplQueue;
    }

    // Add to queue
    public function add(callable $func) {
        $this->list->enqueue($func);
    }

    // Delete from queue and execute
    public function do() {
        if ($this->list->isEmpty()) {
            throw new UnderflowException;
        } else {
            call_user_func($this->list->dequeue());
        }
    }

};

$tasks->add($f1);
$tasks->add($f2);
$tasks->add($f3);
$tasks->add($f4);

$tasks->do(); // Field username is created
$tasks->do(); // Field userpass is created
