Syntax
rethrow
You can use rethrow to resume a caught throw. You can only use rethrow within a catch block. The new instance of the throw is created regardless of any other throws pending, and is dealt with in the same manner as any other throw.
The new throw has the same name and all the parameters of the original throw, even if you did not list all the parameters in the rethrowing catch.
The following is an example of rethrow used with #program-error.
global integer my-first-counter initial {5}
global integer my-second-counter initial {0}
define integer function divide value integer numerator by value integer denominator as
return numerator / denominator
catch #program-error code error-code
rethrow unless error-code = 1219
return 0
process
do
output "%d(my-first-counter) divided by %d(my-second-counter) is: "
|| "d" % divide my-first-counter by my-second-counter
|| "%n"
done
The first catch of #program-error deals only with an attempt to divide by zero. Use rethrow so that all other causes of a #program-error are rethrown and dealt with appropriately by other catch statements.
If a rethrow is not caught, the program will terminate.
