But I am confused at how you can print the exception that returns. I would like to understand how to do the following try { // do something that will fail! } catch (Error e) { // Print out the exception that occurred System.out.println(e.getMessage()); } How do I get the print of

You dump things in log files by logging them and you create exceptions by using die or croak. Are you asking how to put together exception objects etc? That would be a separate question. –Sinan Ünür May 8 '12 at 0:41 add a comment| up vote 29 down vote Last I checked, Error was deprecated. But here's how you would do it without that module: eval { die "Oops!"; 1; } or do { my $e = $@; p

Its maintainers have stopped actively writing code that uses it, and discourage people from doing so. See the "SEE ALSO" section below for better recommendations.

Firstly Error provides a procedural interface to exception handling. Secondly Error is a base class for errors/exceptions that can either be thrown, for subsequent catch, or can simply be recorded. Errors in the class Error should not be thrown directly, but the user should throw errors from a sub-class of Error. PROCEDURAL INTERFACE Error exports subroutines to perform exception handling. These will be exported if t

This would be of great help to me. if any one can do that. thanks - turumkhanAnswer: how do i trap the error generated by perlcontributed by bikeNomad You need to look at the discussions of die() and warn() and the %SIG hash. You can set up your own handlers for errors (via die) using $SIG{__DIE__} = sub { ... } and for warnings (via warn) using $SIG{__WARN__} = sub { ... }. See the perlvar and perlfunc manpages. You can also run code that you think might die inside an eval { } construction and keep your program from dying. #!/usr/bin/perl -w use strict; $SIG{__DIE__} = sub { die("My error: ", @_); }; $SIG{__WARN__} = sub { warn("My warning: ", @_); }; warn("some warning"); die("aarggh!"); [download] Answer: how do i trap the error generated by perlcontributed by arturo Using eval {}; and $@ (which, if set, contains the error message that would otherwise be fatal -- see perldoc perlvar) will allow you to catch most errors: eval { #code you want to catch errors from }; custom_error_handler($@) if $@; [download] Answer: how do i trap the error generated by perlcontributed by LuTze bikeNomad's answer is correct, with an addendum. Using signals is not always straightforward. Signals are handled asynchronously and can interrupt each other. If you are, for example, redirecting those messages to a file, one signal might come in while the previous one is still processing, and stop it from going any further. You could loose some warnings that way, especially if they are being emitted from a tight loop and the handler is slow to execute. In this case, it may be easier to redirect STDERR, which can be done with something like: my $old_stderr = STDERR; open STDERR, ">mylogfile.log"; [download] Please (register and) log in if you wish to add an answer Posts are HTML formatted.
