Subject: [Caml-list] Catching exceptions into strings
Date: Mon, 10 Jun 2002 07:27:15 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <BPMHOBHLNKHJOAAA@mailcity.com> (raw)
Hello
I want to catch exceptions into strings. I do not want to have pre-defined exceptions in my module which can be handled. I want to catch exceptions like "floating point exceptions" etc.
I wrote the follwing piece of code:
value divide2 p = 2/p ;
value foo p =
try divide2 p
with
[e -> let _ = do {print_string (Printexc.to_string e);flush stdout} in 9];
value _ = foo 0;
(This code is in the Camlp4 revised syntax).
When I compile and run this code, I get :
Floating point exception
However, after loading OCAML, if I use this file, I get
value divide2 : int -> int = <fun>
value arbit : int -> int = <fun>
Division_by_zero
That is, in the latter case, I get what I want but in the former case, I don't. Could you help me solve this problem ?
Gaurav
