EasyPattern Error

[kpassaur]

When an incorrect EasyPattern is entered an error message is displayed when you step through the code. Is there anyway to capture the error message and not have the script display a message?

What I am trying to do is simple, not have to test each EasyPattern to make sure the reserved punctuation is not used incorrectly. This appears to be built in, but how to capture it and let the script run is not in the help file.

I was hoping for something like
Let>Continue_On_Error=YES
Result=It failed because there are no mathing brackets

etc.

Without this it means that I would need to test for each [, ], (, ), , , ', " and make sure there is a matching set or it does not exist.

Hi,

Let>IGNOREERRORS=1

Thanks Marcus it is just what I needed.

When I was looking to resolve this I wrote this subroutine that looks for matching brackets "[". It maybe usefull to others. It checks to make sure a "[" bracket has a matching closing bracket.

Code: Select all

Let>pattern=This is a pattern:[123]7890-^&*(45)_[123]

Let>text=This is an IP address: 192.168.10.42

GoSub>Test_EP_SUB
Let>IGNOREERRORS=0

If>Test=Passed
RegEx>pattern,text,1,matches,num,0
If>num>0
MessageModal>matches_1
Else
MDL>No Match
Endif
Else
MDL>Cannot apply EasyPattern%CRLF%%CRLF%%MSG_Text%
Endif
