reexucuting try blocks

[GIGN]

Hi all, I have a call to Transport.send() in a try block.
Sometimes it throws an exception, which is O.K. - but I want to be able to retry the send.

This is a general question - how to ignore the error and resume normal operation? I have tried calling return.

Actually - they are re-executed, I have just adjusted my methods to make better use of exception handling - I was obviously just geting the same error occuring over anf over agian.

Hi,

If you just want to call the send method one more time you can do this:-

try
{
Transport.send();
}
catch (Exception e)
{
//put the try catch if necessary
try
{
Transport.send();
}
catch (Exception e)
{
}
}

If you want to keep on trying, you can do this but beware of infinite loop:-

while (a==0)
{
try
{
Transport.send();
a=1;
}
catch (Exception e)
{
}
}

Basically there is no way to ignore the error unless you throw the exception in the method, which would be something like 'public String getName() throws IOException'.
Another way is to use the keyword finally.

try
{
Transport.send();
}
catch (Exception e)
{
System.out.println("Error encountered : "+e);
}
finally
{
//Carry on with what you want to do here.
}
