I’m getting confused with when Errors are trapped. I created a feedback report <https://xojo.com/issue/52112> about how an error is not trapped when you try to write to a non-existent RowTag in a WebPopupMenu.
' This line should throw an OutOfBoundsException as there is only 1 row in the menu.
cboTest.RowTag (101) = "This is tag on non existing line 101"
I was told this is by design. Why? Surely I want to know if I’m trying to write to a non-existent row? And the IDE will catch the error if I have the “Break on Exceptions” so an error is being raised internally but doesn’t go to the error trap.
I seem to be having a similar problem with the WebUploadedFile. If I try to use the WebUploadedFile.Save method using a filename that already exists, the IDE will break with an IOException but the exception is NOT trapped by a try/catch. Is this by design as well? I want to trap any IOException raised by the save.
Some clarification would be appreciated. What do others think?
