Subject: AW: [PHP-DEV] Continued try blocks
From: rstoll@tutteli.ch ("Robert Stoll")

I like the idea but would prefer another control structure such as
CreateTryCatchBlockForEverySingleLine (should be shorter though) rather =
than
continue.
The continue keyword is confusing in my opinion.  And I would say it =
should
be for every single statement whereupon a statement is defined by either =
;
or {} rather then for every single line.
Thus the following code:

tryStatements{
  $a =3D foo();
  if($a > 1){
    $i =3D bar();
  }else{
    $i =3D muu();
  }
  for(;$i<10;$i++){
    //..
  }
}catch(Exception $ex){
  log($ex);
}

Would result in:

try{
      $a =3D foo();
} catch(Exception $ex){
  log($ex);
}
try{
  if($a > 1){
    $i =3D bar();
  }else{
    $i =3D muu();
  }
} catch(Exception $ex){
  log($ex);
}
try{
  for(;$i<10;$i++){
    //..
  }
} catch(Exception $ex){
  log($ex);
}

Hi Julien.

What about the following example?

try {
    $foo =3D $bar->getObject();
    $foo->doSomething()
} catch(Exception $e) {
    continue // Or whatever shall be used
}

When $bar->getObject throws an Exception no $foo is set. So the next
line will result in a "PHP Fatal error:  Call to a member function
doSomething() on a non-object".

So where shall the "continue" actually continue? In the line after the
exception was thrown? In the line following the last line $foo was
accessed in?

Or would something like

CreateTryCatchBlockForEverySingleLine {
    $bar->doOne();
    $bar->doNext();
    $bar->doSomethingElse();
} catch(Exception $e) {
    doSomethingWithTheException($e);
}

resulting in

try {
    $bar->doOne();
} catch(Exception $e) {
    doSomethingWithTheException($e);
}
try {
    $bar->doNext();
} catch(Exception $e) {
    doSomethingWithTheException($e);
}
try {
    $bar->doSomethingElse();
} catch(Exception $e) {
    doSomethingWithTheException($e);
}

be more what you are talking about?

Regards

Andreas
