When the AVM encounters certain unexpected error conditions, it throws an
instance of the Progress.Lang.StopError class containing
messages associated with the originating error, and raises the STOP
condition.
Progress.Lang.StopError inherits common
error handling abilities from Progress.Lang.ProError, which
implements the Progress.Lang.Error interface. You can
therefore catch this object in a CATCH block to trap error messages
associated with the STOP condition.
You cannot inherit from this class.

Notes
- To enable older behavior and prevent the AVM from throwing Progress.Lang.StopError objects, specify the Catch STOP
(-catchStop) startup parameter with the value 0 (-catchStop 0).
- StopError objects are put on the
SESSION:FIRST-OBJECT chain when they are caught by a
CATCH block.
- Uncaught StopError objects are
automatically deleted by the AVM and removed from the
SESSION:FIRST-OBJECT chain.
