TRY/CATCH and ERROR LOG

Errors are no longer logged when raised in a TRY/CATCH block.

Before version 2.51, exceptions occurring in a TRY/CATCH block were logged if the error log is initiated with the startlog() function. With version 2.51, if an exception is raised in a TRY/CATCH block, it will no longer be logged in the error log file. In other words, the TRY/CATCH block will behave like WHENEVER ERROR CONTINUE, regarding error logging.

Example:

CALL startlog("errors.txt")
...
TRY
    INSERT INTO customer ...
CATCH
    -- Handle errors and write to error log with errorlog() if needed.
    IF SQLCA.SQLCODE == -8634 THEN
       ...
    END IF
END TRY
Important: In order to get this new behavior, the pcode is no longer compatible with older versions (<=2.50). All programs must be recompiled.
