[Clam-devel] Error Handling with Types

[Francisco Tufró]

Hi, i have almost finished the Link test.
I have this question:
How do i (or what do i do to) handle errors with these functions, in the
first what should i do? make the function bool and return true if it was
connected?? or throw something with a special error class that i ignore?

       void BaseTypedOutControl::Link(BaseTypedInControl& in)
       {
               if(IsLinkable(in)){
                       DoTypedLink(in);
               }
               /* Throw error with else! ? */
       }

and:

    template<class TypedControlData>
    void TypedOutControl<TypedControlData>::DoTypedLink(BaseTypedInControl&
in)
    {
        AddLink(dynamic_cast< ProperTypedInControl& >(in));
    }

by the way i send the patch so you have the full code.
bye!
Francisco
