MSIR.0975  CATCH invalid -- token

A Catch statement or block was coded in an invalid context. The following examples are amongst the texts that might be displayed with this message:

  • The Catch statement or block is not located within a valid Try block, as it must be, in which case the following message is produced:

    MSIR.0975: CATCH invalid -- not inside a Try block

  • A Catch statement specifies a base class followed by its extension class, which isn't allowed. The Catch statement can specify a base class, and extension class, or extension followed by the base class being extended, but not base followed by extension. In this case the following messages is produced:

    MSIR.0975: CATCH invalid -- extension class after base class

  • The only valid syntactical words that can follow an exception class name on a Catch statement are 'To', to specify the object to which a caught exception is being saved, and 'And' to introduce an additional exception class to catch. Any other words will be rejected with the following message:

    MSIR.0975: CATCH invalid -- invalid word after class name
