UNIX for Dummies Questions & Answers

// MOST SIMPLE - find catch(...) { //just white-spaces over possibly multiple lines }

    try(...)
    catch( match this catch block because there is nothing but white-spaces between the below '{' and '})
    {
                    
    }
        
// BETTER - find missing ';'
        
    try(...)

    catch()
    {
                match this because there is no semi-colon between the braces        
    }        
            
    try(...)
    catch(...)
     {
        do not match this, because it does contain a semi-colon here;
    }
          
    try(...)
    catch(match this)
    {
            
    }


// BEST - consider comment-blocks

    try(...)
    catch(...)
    {
        <!--- the <!--- and ---> are coldfusion tags that indicate a comment block.
 As such, we should match this line that *does* contain a ; because this ; is not actually part of any in-use code --->
    }
