When can i see ERR_VALUE_RETURN (&hE2)?

GetLastRunRuntimeError() lists 2 numbers that could be "normal" exit codes for Run()/Eval() execution: &hFC and &hE2. The sample code under Run() checks for both too.

Of these i have seen only &hFC (252) so far. Is &hE2 still a thing? Can i ever get that?

    If you brave the leopard 😉 see bslBrightScriptErrorCodes (https://sdkdocs.roku.com/display/sdkdoc ... rrorCodes()asObject)
    and see

          
    ERR_NORMAL_END : &hFC ' normal, but terminate execution. END, shell "exit", window closed, etc.
    ERR_VALUE_RETURN : &hE2 ' return executed, and a value returned on the stack


    An example of a value being returned on the stack is if you use the (not recommended) Run function.

    Oh wow, yes! 
    "Result codes are exhibited in a documents department locked filing cabinet - so go to the console cellar with a torch and look for a disused common:/LibCore/v30/bslCore.brs - and when you find it, make sure not to Library include it - instead dump the source on screen, so can read the strategically placed comments."
    Very, very HHGTTG indeed! Can't imagine this being pure happenstance. Smiley LOL

    Ah ok, so &hE2 is still a thing. I asked because my attempts to reproduce it with eval() were a spectacular failure. So the code is still in use and i should account for it.

    Hmm, how can i check what that "value returned on the stack" is though?

    A good candidate to do that would be the requested extended info from GetLastRunRuntimeError()/Eval(), were it ever to be implemented.

    Yes, i have a good use case for this - am writing a code testing tool.
