Error handling in Javascript action

[YBOUCON]

Hello,

 

As the throw command consume a lot of memory, is there any other way to handle errors in javascript action?

I tried the following code:

    var mytest = '' + input1

    if (mytest == 1) {return false}

 

This does not even compile and returns the following error:

     Script execution failed. Exception: :7:2 Invalid return statement return False ^ in at line number 7 at column number 2

 

Any idea how to execute a return?

Since it's a CARA action, you would need a place for the returned value to go.  You can just populate one of the output parameters with a value:

   

     output1='false';

 

Then another action can check the value of the parameter assigned to Output1 and react accordingly.

Thank you for this answer.

I was thinking about that at first but was searching a simpler way to implement this.
