error_handler(4) Driver Applies error_handler(4)
NAME
error_handler - function in master object to handle errors
SYNOPSIS
void error_handler( mapping error, int caught );
DESCRIPTION
This function allows the mudlib to handle errors instead of
the driver. The contents of the 'error' mapping are:
([
"error" : string, // the error
"program" : string, // the program
"object" : object, // the current object
"line" : int, // the line number
"trace" : mapping* // a trace back
])
Each line of traceback is a mapping containing the follow-
ing:
([
"function" : string, // the function name
"program" : string, // the program
"object" : object, // the object
"file" : string, // the file to which the line number refers
"line" : int // the line number
])
The 'caught' flag is 1 if the error was trapped by catch().
