| Summary | 0000187: New efun: raise_caller_error() | ||||
| Description | Short: New efun raise_caller_error() From: Lars, Daniel von Dincklage <vondincklage@usa.net> Date: Mon, 22 Jun 1998 00:53:36 +0200 Type: Feature State: Unclassified See also: p-990204-1, f-000716 void raise_caller_error(string msg, object caller = previous_object()) Works like raise_error, except that the error is attributed to <caller>, not this_object(). <caller> must be in the current call stack! Maybe make this an extension of raise_error() itself. Note: can be done in an sefun using caller_stack() and set_this_object()? Note: could also be called raise_error() | ||||

For this purpose, we actually use this approach with set_this_object() sometimes. The disadvantage is, that only privileged objects can do that. ok, one could make a sefun using that mechanism. |

We (Wunderland) have code in the master object's runtime_error() function using debug_info(DINFO_TRACE, DIT_UNCAUGHT_ERROR) to attribute errors to calling objects. The reference is encoded in the error message itself: http://wl.mud.de/mud/doc/efun/raise_error.html |
