Exceptions are caught in a manner similar to C++.
(
try
(
<test-body>
)
catch <exception-name>
(
<error-handlers>
)
)
Example:
(
try
(
(Float32 y = (1 / 0))
)
catch ex
(
(LogExeception ex)
)
}
test-body is a sequence of s-expressions that could appear in any regular function definition.
If an exception is thrown while the program is within the test-body, then the stack is cleaned up and
execution begins in the error-handlers function. The exception is of type Sys.IException and has
the name exception-name. Exception handling is not particularly expensive in the Sexy scripting
language.
Exceptions are thrown by using the throw keyword:
(IException ex (CreateException "bah!" -1))
(throw ex)
