Version 3 of bgerror

Updated 2005-11-24 13:12:38

http://purl.org/tcl/home/man/tcl8.4/TclCmd/bgerror.htm is the official man page.

[fill in useful tricks and examples for using bgerror]

Does the documentation describe the calling convention? I didn't notice it. My experience is that the error-handler invokes it as something like

      bgerror [firstLineOf $::errorInfo]

During development, one might rush a hack like

      proc bgerror message {
          puts stderr "An event-based script faulted with '$message'."
      }

into use.

Ken: I want to enquire what is the best method if i got a proc that runs every 20s like the follow code but i want to catch its errors if any of the proc that run afterwards run into errors? I heard using bgerror is not recommended, so what is the best method?

proc a { } {

do something

after 1000 a }
