I am writing an exception handling library in C and i ran into a bump:
#define TRY do{ jmp_buf ex_buf__; switch( setjmp(ex_buf__) ){ case 0:
#define FINALLY break; } default:
#define CATCH(x) break; case x:
#define ETRY } }while(0)
#define THROW(x) longjmp(ex_buf__, x)
In my current implementation of try catch throw, I won't be able to throw an exception from inside a method called from inside the try block because the jmp_buf variable is local. How would i make that possible? I thought about a global variable but that would not allow me to have nested try catch blocks.
You need to use a global jump buffer, because it needs to be visible to your "clients". You could, for example, save the old jump buffer in a try block, and restore it after its use.
In general, I would not recommend this approach at all , though. Trying to retrofit features into a language is fraught with peril, not the least of which would be the following code:
for ;; {
TRY {
if (someVar) {
break;
}
}
FINALLY {
doIt()
}
ETRY
}
Use a stack of jmp_buf
's. Or better yet, use the existing CII library , which has been designed, built, and tested for this purpose.
