I'm not sure I follow... It's an error -- what do you mean by "evaluate"?
If you are looking to catch errors, you can do so with try or tryCatch and then
check for inherits(x, "try-error") to see if there was an error. See the
examples for details of how exactly to set this up -- I'm not at a computer
right now and my memory is fuzzy.
