IE.au3 try catch equivalent

[jlei]

Is it possible to do something like a try catch in au3 script?

Basically I am using au3 for web test automation using the IE.au3 library, but it is cumbersome to manually set test assertion events. Right now I am picking places to pull out the source code and look for keywords of known fail areas.

But the other thing i thought of would be to use the @error reporting and just try block the whole script and catch after a function any time @error != 0 (from then on I would take a screenshot of where its at since it obviously failed)

This would greatly improve test assertion capability inand even give ie.au3 some test automation flavor.

For COM objects in Autoit there is

$oMyError = ObjEvent ("AutoIt.Error", "ErrorHandler")

Func ErrorHandler()
    $HexNumber = Hex($oMyError.number, 8)
    
    MsgBox(16, "CHYBA", "DoÅ¡lo k chybÄ!" & @CRLF & @CRLF & _
            "Popis chyby: " & @TAB & $oMyError.description & @CRLF & _
            "Win. popis:" & @TAB & $oMyError.windescription & @CRLF & _
            "Äíslo Åádku: " & @TAB & $oMyError.scriptline & @CRLF & _
            "Äíslo chyby: " & @TAB & $HexNumber & @CRLF & _
            "Objekt: " & @TAB & $oMyError.source)
    
    SetError(1)
EndFunc

Right... and in IE.au3 there is _IEErrorHandlerRegister() which allows you to either use your own handler like this one or a generic one written for IE.au3. In either case, with IE.au3 you must use _IEErrorHandlerRegister() to avoid losing other functionality (see the remarks in the helpfile for more info).
