Abstract
This paper defines exception conditions, discusses the requirements exception handling language features must satisfy, and proposes some new language features for dealing with exceptions in an orderly and reliable way. The proposed language features serve to highlight exception handling issues by showing how deficiencies in current approaches can be remedied.Keywords
