2000 Advanced Exception Handling Mechanisms
abstract
It is no longer possible to consider exception handling as a secondary issue in language design, or even worse, a mechanism added after the fact via a library approach. Exception handling is a primary feature in language design and must be integrated with other major features, including advanced control flow, objects, coroutines, concurrency, real-time, and polymorphism. Integration is crucial as there are both obvious and subtle interactions between exception handling and other language features. Unfortunately, many exception handling mechanisms work only with a subset of the features and in the sequential domain. A framework for a comprehensive, easy to use, and extensible exception handling mechanism is presented for a concurrent, object-oriented environment. The environment includes language constructs with separate execution stacks, e.g. coroutines and tasks, so the exception environment is significantly more complex than the normal single-stack situation. The pros and cons of various exception features are examined, along with feature interaction with other language mechanisms. Both exception termination and resumption models are examined in this environment, and previous criticisms of the resumption model, a feature commonly missing in modern languages, are addressed.
