Catching type conversion errors [message #13929] Tue, 29 December 1998 00:00

Hi,

I observe that CATCH doesn't capture type conversion errors ( in the absence
of ON_IOERROR command ). This appears to violate the error handling mechanism
given in the IDL user's guide. Am I missing something? Are there any other
errors which CATCH can not capture?

Thanks in advance.

ex:
PRO test
CATCH, err
IF ( err NE 0 ) THEN BEGIN
PRINT, !ERROR
RETURN
ENDIF
a = FIX ( 'abc' )

END
