Passing multiple exceptions to rescue
To rescue multiple classes of exceptions, you have to pass them as a list to rescue
method. Passing as an array won’t work, unless you prefix it with *
(effectively breaking it into a list)
# Works
begin
# some code here
rescue ExceptionA, ExceptionB
puts "uff, thanks!"
end
# Doesn't work
begin
# some code here
rescue [ExceptionA, ExceptionB]
puts "uff, thanks!"
end
# Works
EXCEPTIONS = [ExceptionA, ExceptionB]
begin
# some code here
rescue *EXCEPTIONS
puts "uff, thanks!"
end
