Yes. I don't know how the runtime behaves in that case. Meanwhile, I think a workaround is to call [[library_class:ANY|<tt>ANY</tt>]]<tt>.print_run_time_stack</tt> in your '''rescue''' clause. --[[User:Cadrian|Cyril]] 15:00, 13 Jul 2005 (CEST)

My highest priority request is to improve exception handling. If an exception is caught by a "rescue" clause but remains active because there is no "retry", then the stack dump should still be printed on program termination. Roger Browne 12:54, 13 Jul 2005 (CEST)

Yes. I don't know how the runtime behaves in that case. Meanwhile, I think a workaround is to call ANY.print_run_time_stack in your rescue clause. --Cyril 15:00, 13 Jul 2005 (CEST)

Unfortunately this doesn't work, as has been discussed many many times. It only prints the unwound stack. Roger Browne 17:33, 18 Jul 2005 (CEST)

Well, forgive my poor forgetting mind... I thought all was solved in this area now since sz:469 is fixed. --Cyril 10:10, 28 Jul 2005 (CEST)


I would very much like some documentation and/or tutorial example on how to write a new EXTERNAL_TOOL using COMMAND_LINE_TOOLS. The underlying acyclic visitor pattern has been explainhed a couple of times on the ML and I am also aware of http://smartzilla.loria.fr/attachment.cgi?id=180&action=view but what I miss is some more basic information, e.g. what exactly does the tree of visitable objects look like and how does it relate to the system being parsed? With such documentation, people would be able to write plugins for non-Eiffel specic IDEs, class browserts and the like.

The best (most up-to-date) tutorial currently available is eiffeldoc, which is an EXTERNAL_TOOL and extensively uses Visitors. Of course more information will be added in this wiki. It will be available there. --Cyril 00:25, 18 Jul 2005 (CEST)


I am looking for german native speakers ready to follow the translation in german of the Grand Book.

Colnet 17:33, 15 Jul 2005 (CEST)

It would be great to also have a Spanish translation. And all the other languages are welcome too. --Cyril 00:25, 18 Jul 2005 (CEST)
