I'm sorry, I can't really parse your argument.
My point was that there is a school of htought that exceptions should only be used in "exceptional" circumstances.
The examples given were not exceptional in that a programmer should expect those types of errors during the normal execution of their program. Therefor exceptions aren't the solution to those types of errors.
Does that make more sense to you?
- Dylan16807 15y agoBut using that school of thought to support that school of thought isn't an argument, it's a circle. PaulHoule is explaining why he likes a specific mechanism compared to another, and you are only replying with the previously-established fact that there exists a disagreement here, not a counterargument.
- chollida1 15y agoI get what your saying, I just disagree. And I think alot of people take my point of view as evidenced by the votes my initial post received. No worries, thanks for the point of view:)
