PlayScript (.play) now has Exception Filters like C# 6.0.

These are actually really cool and nice addition to ActionScript.

From the C# Frequently Asked Questions blog:

Exception filters are a CLR capability that is exposed in Visual Basic and F#, but hasn’t been in C# – until now. This is what they look like in C#:

try { … } 
catch (MyException e) if (myfilter(e)) 
{ 
     … 
}

New Features in C# 6

And here is what they look like in PlayScript:

play/test-ps-ex-filter-01.play

package {
    public class Foo {
        public static function Main():int {
        var x:int = 4;
        try {
            throw new Error("Throw");
        } catch (e:Error) if (x > 0) {
            trace("Catch");
            return 0;
        }
        return 1;
        }
    }
}

play/test-ps-ex-filter-02.play

package {
    public class Foo {
        public static function Main():int {
        var x:int = 4;
        try {
            x = 5;
            throw new Error("Throw");
        } catch (e:Error) if (x < 5) {
            trace("No Catch Please");
            return 0;
        } catch (myError:Error) {
            trace("Catch Here");
            return 0;
        }
        return 1;
        }
    }
}
