How to use User::Leave()

Provides a code snippet to explain how to use User::Leave().

You can use the User::Leave() function to terminate a function’s processing immediately when an exception condition occurs. In the example below, if the new fails, the function calls User::Leave() with an error code. The return type of the function is void, because it is not necessary to use it to return error information.

void doExampleL()
 { 
 CExample* myExample = new CExample;
 if (!myExample) User::Leave(KErrNoMemory); 
 // leave used in place of return to indicate an error
 
 // do something
 myExample->iInt = 5;
 testConsole.Printf(_LIT("Value of iInt is %d.\n"),myExample->iInt);
 // delete
 delete myExample;
 }

Notes

  • the L suffix on a function name indicates that it may leave
