runZoned function

R runZoned<R>(R body(), { Map zoneValues, ZoneSpecification zoneSpecification, Function onError })

Runs body in its own zone.

If onError is non-null the zone is considered an error zone. All uncaught errors, synchronous or asynchronous, in the zone are caught and handled by the callback.

Errors may never cross error-zone boundaries. This is intuitive for leaving a zone, but it also applies for errors that would enter an error-zone. Errors that try to cross error-zone boundaries are considered uncaught.

var future = new Future.value(499);
runZoned(() {
  future = future.then((_) { throw "error in first error-zone"; });
  runZoned(() {
    future = future.catchError((e) { print("Never reached!"); });
  }, onError: (e) { print("unused error handler"); });
}, onError: (e) { print("catches error of first error-zone."); });

Example:

runZoned(() {
  new Future(() { throw "asynchronous error"; });
}, onError: print);  // Will print "asynchronous error".
