NAME

ns_adp_abort - Stop processing of the current ADP and discard queued output

SYNOPSIS

ns_adp_abort ?retval?

DESCRIPTION

This command stops processing of the current ADP by throwing a Tcl error along with an "ADP exception" of ADP_ABORT. This has the side-effect of truncating the current ADP's output buffer so that no queued output for the current ADP is sent to the client.

However, if a streaming script was processed before ns_adp_abort was called, the data will already have been output. Also, if any commands that cause output, such as ns_return or ns_write for example, were called before ns_adp_abort, then their output will already have been output also.

The optional retval becomes the return value of the ADP if specified, otherwise an empty string is returned.

EXAMPLES

   # The ns_adp_abort after ns_returnredirect ensures no further ADP
   # processing happens except the redirect itself.
    
   ns_returnredirect http://aolserver.com/
   ns_adp_abort

NOTES

Because it's possible to catch the ns_adp_abort exception, it is possible for code to execute after an ns_adp_abort in the current adp block. However, all subsequent adp blocks are guaranteed to not get evaluated. For example:

   <%
    catch { ... some code that executes ns_adp_abort  }
    if {[ns_adp_exception] eq "abort"} {
        ... some cleanup code
    }
   %>
   <% ... this next block will NOT be evaluated even though ns_adp_abort is caught in the prior block %>
