Error Handling
|
Representing and Throwing Errors
|
enum VendingMachineError: Error {
case invalidSelection
case insufficientFunds(coinsNeeded: Int)
case outOfStock
}
|
|
throw VendingMachineError.insufficientFunds(coinsNeeded: 5)
|
|
Propagating Errors Using Throwing Functions
|
func canThrowErrors() throws -> String
func cannotThrowErrors() -> String
|
|
struct Item {
var price: Int
var count: Int
}
class VendingMachine {
var inventory = [
"Candy Bar": Item(price: 12, count: 7),
"Chips": Item(price: 10, count: 4),
"Pretzels": Item(price: 7, count: 11)
]
var coinsDeposited = 0
func vend(itemNamed name: String) throws {
guard let item = inventory[name] else {
throw VendingMachineError.invalidSelection
}
guard item.count > 0 else {
throw VendingMachineError.outOfStock
}
guard item.price <= coinsDeposited else {
throw VendingMachineError.insufficientFunds(coinsNeeded: item.price - coinsDeposited)
}
coinsDeposited -= item.price
var newItem = item
newItem.count -= 1
inventory[name] = newItem
print("Dispensing \(name)")
}
}

let favoriteSnacks = [
"Alice": "Chips",
"Bob": "Licorice",
"Eve": "Pretzels",
]
func buyFavoriteSnack(person: String, vendingMachine: VendingMachine) throws {
let snackName = favoriteSnacks[person] ?? "Candy Bar"
try vendingMachine.vend(itemNamed: snackName)
}
|
|
struct PurchasedSnack {
let name: String
init(name: String, vendingMachine: VendingMachine) throws {
try vendingMachine.vend(itemNamed: name)
self.name = name
}
}
|
|
Handling Errors Using Do-Catch
|
do {
try expression
statements
} catch pattern 1 {
statements
} catch pattern 2 where condition {
statements
} catch pattern 3, pattern 4 where condition {
statements
} catch {
statements
}
|
|
var vendingMachine = VendingMachine()
vendingMachine.coinsDeposited = 8
do {
try buyFavoriteSnack(person: "Alice", vendingMachine: vendingMachine)
print("Success! Yum.")
} catch VendingMachineError.invalidSelection {
print("Invalid Selection.")
} catch VendingMachineError.outOfStock {
print("Out of Stock.")
} catch VendingMachineError.insufficientFunds(let coinsNeeded) {
print("Insufficient funds. Please insert an additional \(coinsNeeded) coins.")
} catch {
print("Unexpected error: \(error).")
}
// Prints "Insufficient funds. Please insert an additional 2 coins."
|
|
func nourish(with item: String) throws {
do {
try vendingMachine.vend(itemNamed: item)
} catch is VendingMachineError {
print("Couldn't buy that from the vending machine.")
}
}
do {
try nourish(with: "Beet-Flavored Chips")
} catch {
print("Unexpected non-vending-machine-related error: \(error)")
}
// Prints "Couldn't buy that from the vending machine."
|
|
func eat(item: String) throws {
do {
try vendingMachine.vend(itemNamed: item)
} catch VendingMachineError.invalidSelection, VendingMachineError.insufficientFunds, VendingMachineError.outOfStock {
print("Invalid selection, out of stock, or not enough money.")
}
}
|
|
Converting Errors to Optional Values
|
func someThrowingFunction() throws -> Int {
// ...
}
let x = try? someThrowingFunction()
let y: Int?
do {
y = try someThrowingFunction()
} catch {
y = nil
}
|
|
func fetchData() -> Data? {
if let data = try? fetchDataFromDisk() { return data }
if let data = try? fetchDataFromServer() { return data }
return nil
}
|
|
Disabling Error Propagation
|
let photo = try! loadImage(atPath: "./Resources/John Appleseed.jpg")
|
|
Specifying Cleanup Actions
|
func processFile(filename: String) throws {
if exists(filename) {
let file = open(filename)
defer {
close(file)
}
while let line = try file.readline() {
// Work with the file.
}
// close(file) is called here, at the end of the scope.
}
}
