This works great, but with new style exceptions the raise becomes an
@throw:
if (x == 13) {
NSException *badness = [NSException
exceptionWithName:@"BadLuckException"
reason:@"13 is
unlucky"
userInfo:nil];
@throw badness;
}
(Don't forget "-fobjc-exceptions" when you build.)
Does anyone know how to put a breakpoint on @throw? Thanks.
@throw is mostly syntactic sugar for [NSException raise]. You can
still break on raise.
@throw can throw arbitrary objects (you can @throw strings or arrays or
whatever), so breaking on raise in these cases doesn't work. Of
course, writing up a quick test shows that this doesn't even work when
you @throw an NSException.
AFAIK, there is no way to break on an @throw. Hopefully I'm wrong.
I'm not sure if @throw still uses setjmp and longjmp like NSException.
If so, I've seen no good arguments as to why @throw is better than
-raise et al for NSExceptions, so I suggest just not using @throw in
this case. Obviously if you're @throwing a generic object, this isn't
an option.
