Hi All,
I was curious to hear people's opinions on the following issue:
In a PL/SQL procedure I have multiple exception handlers which share a
considerable amount of code. For example, they all typically display a
message to the screen, shutdown a few open files, perform a rollback and
raise the exception. They all vary, however, at the begining.
Is it preferable (or even allowed) to combine the common exception handling
into a single exception? I imagine it's preferred if only for the reason
of improving readability and reducing the chances of slightly messing one
up. What is the best way to share exception code?
Regards,
Mark.
PS: Is the below code even valid or is another approach required?
BEGIN
<some code here - hopefully!>
EXCEPTION
WHEN exc_case1 THEN
<something specific>
RAISE exc_common;
WHEN exc_case2 THEN
<something different>
RAISE exc_common;
WHEN exc_common THEN
<common exception code>
WHEN OTHERS THEN
<panic a little bit>
END;
