AND_CATCH_ALL

AND_CATCH_ALL(exception_object_pointer_name)

Parameters

exception_object_pointer_name

A name for an exception-object pointer that will be created by the macro. You can use the pointer name to access the exception object within the AND_CATCH_ALL block. This variable is declared for you.

Remarks

Defines a block of code for catching additional exception types thrown in a preceding TRY block. Use the CATCH macro to catch one exception type, then the AND_CATCH_ALL macro to catch all other subsequent types. If you use AND_CATCH_ALL, end the TRY block with an END_CATCH_ALL macro.

The exception-processing code can interrogate the exception object, if appropriate, to get more information about the specific cause of the exception. Call the THROW_LAST macro within the AND_CATCH_ALL block to shift processing to the next outer exception frame. AND_CATCH_ALL marks the end of the preceding CATCH or AND_CATCH_ALL block.

Note   The AND_CATCH_ALL block is defined as a C++ scope (delineated by curly braces). If you declare variables in this scope, remember that they are accessible only within that scope.
