unwind skipped on exception?

I'm doing some of the relayering thing right now and I'm trying to do it through entities. I'm curious what this error could represent:

error: Exception occurred: 0xC0000005 (Access Violation)
warning: unwind skipped on exception
error: Exception occurred: 0xC0000005 (Access Violation)

How would you error protect an add linetype or color like this
(setq AddedLineType (vla-put-linetype AddedLayerName llinetype)

 

Mike,

We ain't mind readers. Post the code that's tossing the error. Maybe then we can
help.

Note, the vlisp "put" functions in any form return nil when successful. Otherwise an
error, often "key not found". So something like your setq example below results in a
symbol (AddedLineType) which evaluates to nil either way. No help there.

entities. I'm curious what this error could represent:

 

Mike,

As Joe suggests, posting more code will help. To answer the last part
of your post: vl-catch-all-apply will trap the error and allow your
routine to continue. Below is an example of this.

(setq test (vl-catch-all-apply 'vla-put-linetype
(list AddedLayerName llinetype)))
(if (vl-catch-all-error-p test)
(princ (vl-catch-all-error-message test))
(princ "\nLinetype successfull")
)
