Catching Exceptions

[odoshi]

Hello,

I have 2 functions that do the same thing, calling ReadDwgFile().

One function is a LispFunction and the other is a CommandMethod which calls a dialog.

The LispFunction version will not catch the exception when I wrap ReadDwgFile in a try/catch, but the CommandMethod function will.

Is this because I am calling the LispFunction from LISP, and it just cannot handle those errors? I am trying to catch corrupt drawings on Open during a batch process, and if I hit one 50% into the batch, I lose AutoCAD.

Thanks,

Can you post some code showing this?

I don't see any reason why an exception is not trapped by code that's called
from LISP, except possibly because of the execution context.

Is the code that's not called from LISP running in the document context or
in the application context (e.g., called from a modeless dialog)?
