From: Zouplaz Date: 2006-12-07T21:10:10+09:00 Subject: rescue and continue on next statement ? Hello, I've seen there is a retry statement that rerun the entire begin/end block which raised the exception... I wonder if there is a way to 'continue' (from the rescue block) with the next statement following the one which raised the exception. Eg : begin File.delete("#{@fichier_destination_sql}.gz") # sql File.delete("#{@fichier_destination_tar}.tgz") # tar File.delete("/tmp/aboulafia-db-testdb_rbackup-uid1.gz") File.delete("/tmp/aboulafia-rep-ror_anaema-uid1.tgz") rescue end I want to avoid FileTest. If a file does not exists, the others will not be deleted which is not what I want. I would like begin # snip rescue continue end Is there a solution ? Or a common pattern to avoid this situation ? Thanks !
