error_handler

NAME

error_handler - function in master object to handle errors

SYNOPSIS

void error_handler( mapping error, int caught );

DESCRIPTION

This function allows the mudlib to handle errors instead of the driver.
The contents of the 'error' mapping are:

    ([
        "error"   : string,     // the error
        "program" : string,     // the program
        "object"  : object,     // the current object
        "line"    : int,        // the line number
        "trace"   : mapping*    // a trace back
    ])

Each line of traceback is a mapping containing the following:

    ([
        "function"  : string,   // the function name
        "program"   : string,   // the program
        "object"    : object,   // the object
     "file"      : string,   // the file to which the line number refers
        "line"      : int       // the line number
    ])
The 'caught' flag is 1 if the error was trapped by catch().
