The ERROR statement is used to simulate a program error or to troubleshoot error handling procedures.


Syntax

ERROR codeNumber%


Description

  • Can be used to test an error handling routine by simulating an error.
  • Error code 97 can be used to invoke the error handler for your own use, no real error in the program will trigger error 97.
  • Use error codes between 100 and 200 for custom program errors that will not be responded to by QB64.


Examples

Example: Creating custom error codes for a program that can be handled by an ON ERROR handling routine.

  
Template:C1 GOTO handler

IF x = 0 THEN ERROR 123
x = x + 1
IF x THEN ERROR 111

END


handler:
PRINT ERR, _ERRORLINE
BEEP
RESUME NEXT  
Note: Don't use error codes under 97 or over 200 as QB64 may respond to those errors and interrupt the program.
