Description Travis Watkins 2007-09-11 17:01:24 UTC 
In the attached code the exception handler never gets called (even though there is no way you have that icon) which can later cause problems because inner_error never gets cleared.

Comment 2 Jürg Billeter 2007-09-18 20:27:36 UTC 
Confirming, exception handling currently only works in variable initializers and in the main expression of an expression statement. We need to rearrange the generated C code nodes to be able to handle exceptions in arbitrary expressions.

I think this bugs has been resolved by some other change:

When building and running the attached program everything seems to work properly.
