Subject: [Caml-list] Detecting missed checks for error indications in ML code
Date: Sun, 24 Jan 2021 12:42:23 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <41485ac7-50cf-08fe-4206-b9f863c4d2f5@web.de> (raw)
Hello,
OCaml belongs also to the category of functional programming languages.
Thus the last expression in a function usually becomes the result of
the data processing which was specified in a ML source file.
This would usually happen also if the return value from a function call
indicates an error code (when a function implementation does not throw an exception
according to an error situation).
I got the impression that corresponding error checks can occasionally be missing.
How do you think about to detect such cases by advanced source code analysis?
Regards,
Markus
