[QVTO] syntax for raise (and try except) [message #496418] Mon, 09 November 2009 23:49 Go to next message

Hi I was wondering what the syntax was for the raise construct. I notice
that the QVTO editor recognises the string 'raise' as a keyword, but
everytime I try to use it, I get the message : 'raise' misplaced construct.

I use it like this ...
if(not someBoolean)
then
{
raise "myexception";
}
endif;

.... or like this
if(someBoolean)
then
{
// do something
}
else raise "myexception"
endif;

Is there something wrong with this?

I also get error messages when trying the try .. except thing :
try
{
// do something
}
except("myexception")
{
// do something
};

This time the errors says :
- token 'try' is invalid
- ';' expected instead of 'except'
- collectionTypeIdentifierCS expected instead of '("myexception")'

Regards,
Tony.

Hi Tony,

try-catch handling is not yet implemented.
Though, I don't think it's a good idea to start messing up transformations
with exceptions,
we want to support it in Helios, just to be complete.

Just a hint, if you only want to interrupt a transformation execution like
an
unhandled exception would do, use assertion with fatal severity:

assert fatal (<myCondition>);

In case you need to catch and process the exception in a custom way, it's
not yet possible.

Regards,
/Radek
