Using an Exception Handler
The following example shows a version of the standard C strcpy function that can handle an invalid pointer and return NULL if one is
encountered.
Note that this exception handler is intended to handle an access-violation
exception, but is inappropriate if some other type of exception occurs. Therefore,
the filter expression in the example uses the GetExceptionCode function to check the exception type before executing the handler. This
enables the system to continue its search for an appropriate handler if some other
type of exception occurs.
Note also that there is no problem with using a return statement in the try block of a try-except statement. This differs from the use of return in the try block of a try-finally statement, which causes an abnormal termination of the try block.
LPTSTR SafeStrcpy(LPTSTR lpszString1, LPTSTR lpszString2) {
try {
return strcpy(string1, string2);
}
except (GetExceptionCode() == EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION ?
EXCEPTION_EXECUTE_HANDLER :
EXCEPTION_CONTINUE_SEARCH ) {
return NULL;
}
}
The following example shows the interaction of nested try-finally and try-except statements. The RaiseException function causes an exception in the guarded body of a try-finally termination handler that is inside the guarded body of a try-except exception handler. The exception causes the system to evaluate the
FilterFunction function, whose return value in turn causes the exception handler to be
invoked. However, before the exception-handler block is executed, the finally block of the termination handler is executed because the flow of control has
left the try block of the termination handler.
DWORD FilterFunction() {
printf("1 "); // printed first
return EXCEPTION_EXECUTE_HANDLER;
}
VOID main(VOID) {
try {
try {
RaiseException(1, // exception code
0, // continuable exception
0, NULL); // no arguments
}
finally {
printf("2 ") // this is printed second
}
}
except ( FilterFunction() ) {
printf("3\n"); // this is printed last
}
}

Nostalgia .Net |
|
.Net is powerful, but not all-powerful, so sometimes we need to use Win32 API for our .Net applications. It's simple enough with Platform Invoke if you have Win32 skill, but we do not always have time to dig the ancient documentation, declare the special types that are compatible with Win32, find the values of the Win32's constants and so on. Nostalgia .Net offers several simple-to-use classes, and components that will allow you to forget about the headache of Win32 and just use the power of Win32 in your application the same way as you use the native. Net classes. More » |
