Back to [[conference:committee:2015-proposals]]\\ \\ **Title**: Exception Handling\\ **Proposer**: [[2015:Klaus Marquardt]]\\ **Proposer**: [[2015:Claudius Link]]\\ **Type**: Tutorial and Stories that could be true\\ **Duration**: 90 mins\\ **Description**: \\ Error handling easily attributes to the larger part of a project's software. And it is rarely better specified as in "use exceptions only in exceptional circumstances", or "establish a rational error handling policy".\\ \\ Such ambiguous understanding leads to instable systems, and to diagnosis reports that eclipse the root causes.\\ \\ Our talk looks at error handling in different domains and technologies. We will treat examples and share experiences from safety critical systems and reusable components.\\ \\ Topics include: Explicit errors; decision points; safe state; library interactions; degradation techniques; logging; crossing organizational units.\\ \\ \\ \\
