Hi, is there a way to set an unhandled reaktive exception handler similar to Rx? I’m having trouble tracking down a native crash on iOS coming from CreateDefaultUncaughtErrorHandler and the stack trace doesn’t give much clues. abort() is called so it crashes the app. I’d like to set the default handler to log the error but not crash the app.

Hello! There is Plugin API: https://github.com/badoo/Reaktive/tree/master/reaktive/src/commonMain/kotlin/com/badoo/reaktive/plugin
I also filed an issue to add some information to the Readme: https://github.com/badoo/Reaktive/issues/618

Basically you should create an implementation of ReaktivePlugin interface, and register it using registerReaktivePlugin function.

Thanks I’ll take a look

I found this global:

reaktiveUncaughtErrorHandler

Would it be safe on app start to set that global to a callback, and then log the error?

[Arkadii Ivanov]

If you just need to log the error, then you can use it. But it should log the error by default

Ok got it, I’m trying to log the error and not crash app, I think the default implemention calls abort()

[Arkadii Ivanov]

Ah yes, then you can use it

[Mike]

cool I think I’ll do that as a quick fix, and then look at the plugin way

The Plugin would allow you to intercept assembly calls, so you could achieve something like what Traceur lib does for RxJava.
