Hi Thomas,

Note that you can already 'emulated' this by just setting a break point on
::Error
and TObeject::Error

Cheers,
Philippe.

Subject: [ROOT] Error and Exceptions


Dear rooters,

might it be possible to implement a feature such, that if I get a
message like this
Error in <TArrayC::operator[]>: index 577 out of bounds (size: 577,
this: 0xbffff220)
I can switch on raising an exception so that I can identify the position
in the code by a debugger?

I think of something like
    if (gDebugLevel>3) // for the Error messages
       "Raise an exception"

    if (gDebugLevel>2) // for the Warning messages
       "Raise an exception"

...

I think this could simplify debugging a lot.

Best regards,
Thomas.
