Can't catch exception throwing after Kotlin co

问题:

Using kotlinx.coroutines lib I can't catch an exception if it was thrown after coroutine is canceled. This leads to app crash.

fun foo() {
  val job = launch(UI) {
     try {
        Log.d("TAG", "Start coroutine")
        run(CommonPool) {
           Log.d("TAG", "Start bg task")
           // Intentionally make bg task running for a long time
           SystemClock.sleep(2000)
           Log.d("TAG", "Throw bg task exception")
           throw RuntimeException("Bg task exception")
        }
     } catch (e: Exception) {
        Log.e("TAG", "Handle coroutine exception", e)
     }
  }

  launch(UI) {
     delay(1000)
     Log.d("TAG", "Cancel job = ${job.cancel()}")
  }

}

Running this functions on Android produces the following log output

Seems to be calling cancel() throws CancellationException which is caught successfully. But the subsequent RuntimeException is not caught. I suppose the following exceptions after the job is canceled should be ignored by the lib? Or how I can cancel job silently without throwing a CancellationException exception?

回答1:

Use CoroutineExceptionHandler as additinoal coroutine context to handle exceptions, for launch or run like

run(CommonPool + CoroutineExceptionHandler({ _, e ->
   Log.e("TAG", "CoroutineExceptionHandler", e)
})) {
    ...
}

or

launch(UI + CoroutineExceptionHandler({ _, e ->
   Log.e("TAG", "CoroutineExceptionHandler", e)
})) {
   ...
}
