Rescue ignored

[technoben59]

Hi! I'm trying to restore data from a file saved
with{STORABLE}.basic_store.

If the file is consistent, the system works well, otherwise I get an
"Unhandled exception: External event" ignoring my rescue clause.

The code is

storage: RAW_FILE
...
open is
      local
          storable: STORABLE
          invalid_database: BOOLEAN
      do
          if invalid_database then
          else
             Create storable
             database ?= storable.retrieve_by_name (storage.name)
          end
      rescue
          invalid_database := True
          retry
      end

Environment: Windows 2000 SP4 / EiffelStudio 6.4 / Default compiler /
base, time, wel, wel_pre libraries.

Any help? Thank you.

The IDE will pause on an exception by default, are you sure it's ignoring
your rescue clause or just pausing when the exception is thrown.

It stops execution showing the exception... :)

I should have included this tip in the first place.  Under Execution ->
Exception Handling you can tell the IDE to ignore certain exception types.

You are right about IDE pausing. I didn't know that I could continue
execution after that type of error. Thank you very much for your
interest. Bye
