--- Comment #28 from Lionel Elie Mamane <lio...@mamane.lu> --- (In reply to Julien Nabet from comment #27) > I don't want to click on Start Review because I think it'll remove WIP > status. Click there, then "Send as WiP" (not "Send and Start Review", that's what I did). > const Reference< XConnection2 > xCon2(_xConnection, UNO_QUERY); > or > const Reference< XConnection2 > xCon2(_xConnection, UNO_QUERY_THROW); > now I'm not sure which one we should use and why. That's important to understand. UNO_QUERY (which I think/hope is the default and can just be omitted, but I'm a bit rusty on details) means that if _xConnection does not implement the XConnection2 interface, then xCon2 will be a NULL reference. UNO_QUERY_THROW means that if _xConnection does not implement the XConnection2 interface, then a RuntimeException will be thrown; execution of the code block is _stopped_, and everything goes up scope by scope until the exception is caught. Generally, UNO_QUERY is good when the situation (the requested interface is not implemented) is handled locally, with an "if (xCon2.is())" as I suggested should be done in this case. Generally, UNO_QUERY_THROW is good when the code just cannot continue in this situation, and the error must go up the stack until the error is handled. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
