Newbie error handling question

 [1/2] from: kpeters::vu-ware::com at: 28-Apr-2005 12:06


Hi list ~ how can I employ some error handling so that I get retries if a get in the loop should fail? As always, thanks in advance, Kai foreach url urllist [ counter: counter + 1 write to-file append copy "file" counter read url ]

Kai, This depends on what you mean by retries... Here's a quick solution: foreach url urllist [ either error? error: try [ content: read url ] [ ; register which url and schedule for retry ; maybe print mold disarm error to see why 'read failed? ] [ counter: counter + 1 write to-file append copy "file" counter content ] ] HY Dixit Kai Peters <[kpeters--vu-ware--com]> (Thu, 28 Apr 2005 12:06:20 -0700):
