How to catch Octave Error?

Question

I'm replicating a question I asked on Octave mailing list.

How do I catch any error that Octave returns when using Octave in C++ code? I would like to catch any Octave core/package errors. Which API functions would I use to catch and print the error?

Answer 1

You need to wrap the code that may contain the potential error in a try catch statement
