_{Official ZPE/YASS documentation}Exception

Introduction

The Exception object is a small utility object used to represent an error message in a standard form.

It stores an internal message string which can be set using the constructor and retrieved using get_message().

Exception object functions

The following is a list of internal functions the Exception object exposes. All functions are ZPEObjectNativeFunctions therefore run in native code.

_construct(string message) ⇒ string

Sets the exception message. This also returns the message as a string.

get_message() ⇒ string

Returns the current exception message.

Examples

Creating a new Exception and reading its message:

$e = new Exception("Something went wrong.")
print($e->get_message())

Notes

• The Exception object is primarily a simple message container.
• In core Java, ZPE also includes helper methods that throw runtime/argument/permission errors internally (for example ThrowInterpreterError and ThrowArgumentError), but those are not called from YASS directly.
• _construct returns a string (the message), not the Exception object itself.
