RXS_Catch()

This subprocedure can be used to catch an error thrown by RXS_Throw() or via other methods. The error information is retrieved into a RXS_CatchThrowErrorDS_t data structure.

Typical usage involves this subprocedure being called inside the ON-ERROR section of a MONITOR group.

Example Code

ErrorDS = RXS_Catch(); // At this point ErrorDS should contain the error information for an // MCH1211 "divide by zero" error. endmon; return;
