Completion of error handling about vkvg HOT 15 OPEN

Examples:

• Programming language “C++”
• Semantic patch language (Coccinelle)
• AspectC++

from vkvg.

I know these tools to some degree.
🔮 How will their application acceptance evolve by other software designers, system testers and developers?

from vkvg.

I've not yet implemented any exception handling, but if you have a clear idea of what you want, feel free to submit a pull request.

from vkvg.

I suggest to avoid ignorance of return values a bit more.
Would you like to detect every error situation as early as possible?

from vkvg.

You are right that error handling is a key part, but I feel more comfortable with the idea of implementing a single error handling pattern as a whole in a dedicated step of the development. I guess the advantage is to keep the code as simple (and readable) as possible in the early steps of creation. And as long as the software is run in a debug environment, error handling isn't critical. It is even sometimes harder to debug with errors routed to the top of the library. But any idea and help is welcome.

How do you think about to improve static source code analysis also for this software?

• Are you interested to apply aspect-oriented software development?
• Would you like to encapsulate error detection and corresponding exception handling as a reusable aspect in your software?

from vkvg.

Static source code analyzers are handy tools, but using them too early could limit creativity and intuition. Also being rigorous by yourself instead of being driven by a soft is a must. Letting a software making lots of tiny changes in your draft could have bad consequence.
For error handling, I will try to make them non-blocking where possible, but producing a reusable aspect is not really in my plans.

Can higher level development tools help to improve also this software implementation further?

from vkvg.

You think to a particular tool?

from vkvg.

Yes. - There are development tools available which could help more with the desired completion of exception handling.
🔮 How do you think about to extend the software tool box?

from vkvg.

tell me more...which soft?

from vkvg.

If you have good experience with those tools, I'm open to any pull request that could improve vkvg.

• How do you think about to work with functions which can throw C++ exceptions?
• Would you like to integrate the tool “AspectC++” into your software build process?

from vkvg.

No, vkvg is a c library.

from vkvg.

Can functions of a C library call (member) functions of a class library for this software?
