Hi - Sometimes I look through my event log and find that a Macro has a syntax error, or I'm trying to perform a function on a module (Unit) that I deleted.
Is there a way to program Powerhome such that "if error is detected while executing command then trigger <macro>" then I can write a macro that sends me an Email. (and use the time of the Email to find the error in the log).
Any way to do this?
Thanks!

Hi Jeffw,
I remember something about this topic. As I recall
someone (probably Dave) mentioned that this would be
dangerous because if the macro that you call upon error
detecting has itself an error, you'd be stuck in a loop.

Yeah, I agree, you'll have to search the forum for the
original thread and discussion. It was a while ago....

I'll take a look at this. Im thinking of a trigger that
can be fired on specific error conditions. There would be
no way I could catch every error but I should be able to
do the ones that at least go to the log or pop a critical
error.
Dave.

That would be great. When I code for my day job, I pick up a lot of errors by tkdiffing to the old code. Can't do this with PH so errors creep in. A flagging mechanism would be awesome.

Dave,
On this one, if there's an error, it would be totally useful to have visibility to the macro name ( and parent macro
if it's a sub-macro) and the line number. The more the merrier.....
Maybe you could make new SYSTEM Vars for this.....
Just a thought.
