Detailed Description

Isis exception class.

This class represents a general Isis exception. It contains an enumeration for what type of error the exception represents, and can optionally track what exceptions caused the current exception. This class also provides access to string and PVL representations of the exception.

Instances of this class should be thrown by value and caught be reference. Please see the constructor documentation for code examples on how to create and throw exceptions.

All methods in this class are re-entrant.

History:

2012-03-07 Jai Rideout and Steven Lambright - Completely refactored how this class works so that it no longer stores messages in static memory. This refactoring was necessary for the upcoming control network suite project to allow this class to work with multi-threading. The ErrorType enum was also shortened to include only four relevant error types, as the other error types were often misused, ambiguous, completely forgotten, and not helpful to users. The code was updated appropriately to follow the current Isis coding standards.

History:

2012-03-13 Steven Lambright - toString() was giving "End" with an empty exception when using Format = Pvl. It should (and must) be an empty string. This is fixed -- fixes #755.

Member Enumeration Documentation

enum Isis::IException::ErrorType

Contains a set of exception error types.

These types indicate the source of the error. For example, if the error type is User, this indicates that the exception was thrown due to something the user did wrong, such as provide a cube with no SPICE data to an application that needed a spiceinit'd cube as input.

Enumerator:

Unknown	A type of error that cannot be classified as any of the other error types. This should be the most common error type. If in doubt, always use this error type.
User	A type of error that could only have occurred due to a mistake on the user's part (e.g. bad input to the application). You must be able to guarantee that the user provided the input in the context that is throwing the error.
Programmer	This error is for when a programmer made an API call that was illegal. This includes: Making an API call with illegal input data that could and should have been checked before the call was made. For example, an out of array bounds exception is a programmer exception because the caller should have checked the size of the array. Making an API call that requires a certain class state. For example, you need to call open before read. These categories have a lot of overlap, but they are what you are looking for. A programmer exception is not appropriate if the caller has no way to validate their inputs to a method ahead of time, or if the caller is not expected to validate their inputs ahead of time.
Io	A type of error that occurred when performing an actual I/O operation. For example, fread/fwrite calls. This also includes files not existing, inter-processes socket communications, and network communications. This does not include a file not having the expected values inside of it (for example, reading a corrupted PVL).

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

Isis::IException::IException

(

)

The default constructor creates an IException instance with no message, previous exceptions, or file info.

The exception error type is Unknown.

This default constructor exists so that IException instances can be stored in Qt containers such as lists. This is also used for cancelling a program run.

   throw IException();

Isis::IException::IException	(	ErrorType	type,
		const char *	message,
		const char *	fileName,
		int	lineNumber
	)

This version of the constructor creates an IException instance with the given error type, message, and file info.

The IException instance will not have any previous exceptions associated with it initially (i.e. no exception caused this one to be thrown).

   throw IException(IException::Unknown,
                    "While doing an important process, we could not do ... "
                    "because the data [" ... "] is invalid",
                    _FILEINFO_);

Parameters:

	type	the source of the error that this exception represents
	message	the string message containing details about the error, which may be displayed to the user
	fileName	the filename of the file that this exception was thrown in
	lineNumber	the line in the source code file that threw this exception

		const std::string &	message,
		const char *	fileName,

This version of the constructor creates an IException instance with the given error type, message, and file info.

The IException instance will not have any previous exceptions associated with it initially (i.e. no exception caused this one to be thrown). The QString version of this constructor is preferred over this one.

   std::string message = "While doing an important process, we could not do .. "
                     "because the data [" ... "] is invalid";
   throw IException(IException::Unknown, message, _FILEINFO_);

Member Function Documentation

void Isis::IException::append

(

const IException &

exceptionSource

)

Appends the given exception (and its list of previous exceptions) to this exception's causational exception list.

The passed in exception is the cause of this exception. Exceptions should be appended in the original order that they were thrown - earlier first.

This method causes the results of what() to be rebuilt, invalidating any previous results.

 try {
    ...
 }
 catch (IException &error1) {
   try {
     ...
   }
   catch (IException &error2) {
     IException finalError(IException::Unknown, "...", _FILEINFO_);
     finalError.append(error1);
