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 <d...@iq80.com> To: Da Vinci Machine Project <mlvm-dev@openjdk.java.net> Date: 07/07/2012 10:10 AM Subject: Re: TaggedArrays (Proposal) Sent by: mlvm-dev-boun...@openjdk.java.net 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 mlvm-dev@openjdk.java.net http://mail.openjdk.java.net/mailman/listinfo/mlvm-dev
