[Please do just poke at me until I make sense.]
I tried to get it to work, asked questions on IRC until I looked at the
sourcescp and saw that the code didn't even try to generate the exception.
So, I deleted my attempts.
Since then, I found several different ways to look through the namespaces, and
thought picking on find_name wasn't even close to the real problem.
That said, I tried to get this to run, just now:
.sub main :main ### :pedantic_args
.param string argv :slurpy
errorson(.PARROT_ERRORS_GLOBALS_FLAG)
push_eh myhandler
$P0 = find_name "i_better_not_exist_or_this_thing_is_crazy"
if null $P0 goto wasnull
say "not null, must have existed somehow. inconceivable!"
exit 1
wasnull:
say "was null. not good!"
exit 2
myhandler:
say "generated exception. excellent!"
exit 0
.end
but the errorson command is unhappy for some reason. I don't know when I can
get back to this.
