(** Facilities for printing exceptions. *)
val to_string: exn -> string
(** [Printexc.to_string e] returns a string representation of
the exception [e]. *)
val print: ('a -> 'b) -> 'a -> 'b
(** [Printexc.print fn x] applies [fn] to [x] and returns the result.
If the evaluation of [fn x] raises any exception, the
name of the exception is printed on standard error output,
and the exception is raised again.
The typical use is to catch and report exceptions that
escape a function application. *)
val catch: ('a -> 'b) -> 'a -> 'b
(** [Printexc.catch fn x] is similar to {!Printexc.print}, but
aborts the program with exit code 2 after printing the
uncaught exception. This function is deprecated: the runtime
system is now able to print uncaught exceptions as precisely
as [Printexc.catch] does. Moreover, calling [Printexc.catch]
makes it harder to track the location of the exception
using the debugger or the stack backtrace facility.
So, do not use [Printexc.catch] in new code. *)
val print_backtrace: out_channel -> unit
(** [Printexc.print_backtrace oc] prints an exception backtrace
on the output channel [oc]. The backtrace lists the program
locations where the most-recently raised exception was raised
and where it was propagated through function calls.
@since 3.11.0
*)
val get_backtrace: unit -> string
(** [Printexc.get_backtrace ()] returns a string containing the
same exception backtrace that [Printexc.print_backtrace] would
print.
@since 3.11.0
*)
val record_backtrace: bool -> unit
(** [Printexc.record_backtrace b] turns recording of exception backtraces
on (if [b = true]) or off (if [b = false]). Initially, backtraces
are not recorded, unless the [b] flag is given to the program
through the [OCAMLRUNPARAM] variable.
@since 3.11.0
*)
val backtrace_status: unit -> bool
(** [Printexc.backtrace_status()] returns [true] if exception
backtraces are currently recorded, [false] if not.
@since 3.11.0
*)
val register_printer: (exn -> string option) -> unit
(** [Printexc.register_printer fn] registers [fn] as an exception
printer. The printer should return [None] or raise an exception
if it does not know how to convert the passed exception, and [Some
s] with [s] the resulting string if it can convert the passed
exception. Exceptions raised by the printer are ignored.
When converting an exception into a string, the printers will be invoked
in the reverse order of their registrations, until a printer returns
a [Some s] value (if no such printer exists, the runtime will use a
generic printer).
When using this mechanism, one should be aware that an exception backtrace
is attached to the thread that saw it raised, rather than to the exception
itself. Practically, it means that the code related to [fn] should not use
the backtrace if it has itself raised an exception before.
