Tim's Libraries/Error Macros.h
/* |
File: Error Macros.h |
Contains: These macros can be used to implement nice error handling within a function. |
Essentially, all errors jump to an error handler at the end of the function, |
which should cleanup any leftovers and return the appropriate error result. |
Note that the error handlers take a message string. This should be a good |
indication of the actual error, and it will appear when debugging is turned |
on. |
Note that any additional sanity checking code can be added to any function |
by using |
#if qDebugging |
// do additional sanity checking here. |
#endif |
For example, this could be used to check the internal validity of an object |
before taking an action. |
