##### 8.1.7.3 Exceptions

Any exception raised in a remote method or subprogram call is propagated back to the caller. Exception semantics are preserved in the regular Ada way.

         package Internal is
            Exc : exception;
         end Internal;

         package RemPkg2 is
            pragma Remote_Call_Interface;

            procedure Subprogram;
         end RemPkg2;

         package RemPkg1 is
            pragma Remote_Call_Interface;

            procedure Subprogram;
         end RemPkg1;

Let us say that RemPkg2, Internal and RemExcMain packages are on the same partition Partition_1 and that RemPkg1 is on partition Partition_2.

         with RemPkg1, Ada.Exceptions; use Ada.Exceptions;
         package body RemPkg2 is
            procedure Subprogram is
            begin
               RemPkg1.Subprogram;
            exception when E : others =>
               Raise_Exception (Exception_Identity (E), Exception_Message (E));
            end Subprogram;
         end RemPkg2;

         with Internal, Ada.Exceptions; use Ada.Exceptions;
         package body RemPkg1 is
            procedure Subprogram is
            begin
               Raise_Exception (Internal.Exc'Identity, "Message");
            end Subprogram;
         end RemPkg1;

         with Ada.Text_IO, Ada.Exceptions; use Ada.Text_IO, Ada.Exceptions;
         with RemPkg2, Internal;
         procedure RemExcMain is
         begin
            RemPkg2.Subprogram;
         exception when E : Internal.Exc =>
            Put_Line (Exception_Message (E)); -- Output "Message"
         end RemExcMain;

When RemPkg1.Subprogram on Partition_1 raises Internal.Exc, this exception is propagated back to Partition_2. As Internal.Exc is not defined on Partition_2, it is not possible to catch this exception without an exception handler when others. When this exception is reraised in RemPkg1.Subprogram, it is propagated back to Partition_1. But this time, Internal.Exc is visible and can be handled as we would in a single-partition Ada program. Of course, the exception message is also preserved.
