Pd is a data flow language and I thikn the per-canvas paradigm maps well to the idea of data "passing through a danger zone" - which it can also leave as well.

however, I do like oliver's idea of hooking up such a [catch]-like object in the object-tree.

Both have their merits, I suppose the depth first flow version could benefit from another object to uninstall the error handler, making it able to emulate the per-canvas mechanism.

A feature like "(re-)throw error/exception to parent" could be useful in both cases; with top-level unhandled errors getting printed in the console.  And a "throw error to current exception handler" would be useful too.

This proliferation of objects makes me think that it could be useful to have an [error foo] set of objects, like [list].


Something like this perhaps (swap outlet order if you like, doesn't bother me)

 |
[error begin  ]
 |           |
[foo]      recover from bar and baz errors (apart from error 42 from bar) as well as errors from foo
 |
[error begin      ]
 |            |
[bar]         [route 42                    ]
 |            |                            |
[error end]  recover from bar error 42     [error throw]
 |
[baz]
  |
