When i am going through this url article published in july 2010 http://fog-framework.blogspot.com/2010/07/type-safe-scripting-engines-for-c.html it is listing the disadvantage of angelscript regarding exception as "[color=#333333][font=Georgia, serif][size=2]Only text exceptions, no try-catch blocks in the code. Exception is something that shouldn't happen and it's handled by the your C/C++ code."[/font] [color=#333333][font=Georgia, serif][size=2] [/font] [color=#333333][font=Georgia, serif][size=2]is it really "still" so, or it has been added[/font] [color=#333333][font=Georgia, serif][size=2] [/font] [color=#333333][font=Georgia, serif][size=2]( I am asking this , because one disadvantage of angelscript listed here, [/font] [color=#333333][font=Georgia, serif][size=2] "[/font][color=#333333][font=Georgia, serif][size=2]No inheritance for C/C++ classes. This makes the scripting engine totally unuseful for GUI ". [/font] [color=#333333][font=Georgia, serif][size=2] This disadvantage is removed, i know. So i am hoping that whether the above thing (which i have asked about) has also been done[/font] [color=#333333][font=Georgia, serif][size=2])[/font] [color=#333333][font=Georgia, serif][size=2]hence, to restate the question: "whether try catch i can do in angelscript or not"?[/font]

@ _orm_ :
i am sorry if i asked many questions in a single day and that was inconvenient to you or anybody else.

I'm sure _orm_ was just joking. Feel free to post as much as you like.

Yep, just joking. Maybe I should have thrown in one of these? ->

Just curious WitchLord, as you are going to add exceptions, what is your opinion of design by contract in AngelScript? For some reason C++ never introduced it, only Digital Mars has it for C++ as far as I know.

Contracts are not considered at this moment. They are one thing that I've put on my NOT-to-do list for now. I'm not trying to create a "better" programming language with AngelScript, and contracts is something that I feel is just overkill for a script language. Still, maybe sometime in the distant future I may consider this again, once all other more prioritary features are implemented.
