| 3 | ## Error Handling | |
| 4 | ||
| 5 | Of course, you should always apply some error handling to your scripts as well. PHPExcel throws exceptions, so you can wrap all your code that accesses the library methods within Try/Catch blocks to trap for any problems that are encountered, and deal with them in an appropriate manner. | |
| 6 | ||
| 7 | The PHPExcel Readers throw a PHPExcel_Reader_Exception. | |
| 8 | ||
| 9 | ```php | |
| 10 | $inputFileName = './sampleData/example-1.xls'; | |
| 11 | ||
| 12 | try { | |
| 13 | /** Load $inputFileName to a PHPExcel Object **/ | |
| 14 | $objPHPExcel = PHPExcel_IOFactory::load($inputFileName); | |
| 15 | } catch(PHPExcel_Reader_Exception $e) { | |
| 16 | die('Error loading file: '.$e->getMessage()); | |
| 17 | } | |
| 18 | ``` | |
| 19 | > See Examples/Reader/exampleReader16.php for a working example of this code. | |
