Function: try()
Evaluates an Expression and returns its value unless an error has occurred. If an error occurs, the error value is placed into an internal variable called _error and the 2nd Expression is evaluated.
Syntax
try(expression1, expression2)
| Argument | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| expression1 | Expression | Any valid Expression |
| expression2 | Expression | Any valid Expression |
Examples
try( $val = toNum(crm.total), do( $SysError = _error + in.accountKey, -1 ) )
The first expression tries to convert crm.total to a number. If the conversion fails, the reason for the failure is stored in the internal variable _error. This value, along with a value from the in pipe is stored in the user defined $SysError variable, and a value of -1 is returned.
