The jsTryCatch workflow demonstrates the use of Try/Catch Instruction blocks for error handling. In this example the job job2_b in the Try Instruction block generates a random number. If an even value is generated then no error occurs and no error handling with the Catch Instruction block occursis applied. If an odd value is generated then the jobs in the Catch Instruction block will be executed. You might have to run this workflow a number of times to find different behavior with errors being caused by random numbers.
