Hi Dain I use exceptions to handle non local returns in ST which are not exceptional ( happen alot). I did a quick look at the timing and the throw/catch was not slow.
I believe John Rose has a blog entry on it mark From: Dain Sundstrom <[email protected]> To: Da Vinci Machine Project <[email protected]> Date: 07/07/2012 10:10 AM Subject: Re: TaggedArrays (Proposal) Sent by: [email protected] On Jul 7, 2012, at 1:56 AM, Rémi Forax wrote: > You have also to figure out how to get two return values from a method call, > but exceptions are your best friend here. Can you give an example of what you mean here? Also, from all the presentations I've seen on the JVM, exceptions are very expensive to throw and catch, so I would expect this to be way slower then say returning the multiple values using a generated results class. -dain _______________________________________________ mlvm-dev mailing list [email protected] http://mail.openjdk.java.net/mailman/listinfo/mlvm-dev
