140 The double loop lets us correctly handle code "break"ing out of the
141 try catch block. (It works as the "break" only exits the inner
142 "while" loop, the outer for loop detects this handling it
143 correctly.) Of course "return" and "goto" are not so lucky.

183 Code normally throws an exception using error() et.al. For various

199/* Call FUNC(UIOUT, FUNC_ARGS) but wrapped within an exception
200 handler. If an exception (enum return_reason) is thrown using
201 throw_exception() than all cleanups installed since
202 catch_exceptions() was entered are invoked, the (-ve) exception
203 value is then returned by catch_exceptions. If FUNC() returns
787274f0 204 normally (with a positive or zero return value) then that value is
60250e8b
AC
205 returned by catch_exceptions(). It is an internal_error() for
206 FUNC() to return a negative value.
207
208 For the period of the FUNC() call: UIOUT is installed as the output
209 builder; ERRSTRING is installed as the error/quit message; and a
210 new cleanup_chain is established. The old values are restored
211 before catch_exceptions() returns.
212
213 The variant catch_exceptions_with_msg() is the same as
214 catch_exceptions() but adds the ability to return an allocated
215 copy of the gdb error message. This is used when a silent error is
216 issued and the caller wants to manually issue the error message.

DE
218 MASK specifies what to catch; it is normally set to
219 RETURN_MASK_ALL, if for no other reason than that the code which
220 calls catch_errors might not be set up to deal with a quit which
221 isn't caught. But if the code can deal with it, it generally
222 should be RETURN_MASK_ERROR, unless for some reason it is more
223 useful to abort only the portion of the operation inside the
224 catch_errors. Note that quit should return to the command line
225 fairly quickly, even if some further processing is being done.
