Coding the INIT and END Methods 5.3
Figure 5.11 Exit or Continue Script
If you press the Continue Script button, then nothing at all happens; the program
ends normally. If you press the Exit Script button, then the script does
indeed finish, but first the END method is run, resulting in the application log
being displayed as shown in Figure 5.12. The log is displayed because of the code
in the END method (Listing 5.9) that makes it happen.
One of the great features of the application log is that you can nest messages in a
tree structure. Therefore, if you are loggi ng a colossal amount of steps, you can
set the initial display to be at a very high level, with a red blob at the top level if
any of the lower steps caused an error. In this example, a programmer can look at
the error lines on the application log and see at once that the first two trigger
points are the numbers one and two instea d of three, six, and nine. Then the
cause of the error becomes obvious, the programmer changes the DIV to MOD, and
all is well.
