Ignoring exception in oracle trigger

Question

I have a table with some denormalized precalculated columns that are maintained by a trigger. The data sometimes is corrupted and the process fails but in these cases I need just ignore the exceptions and continue because it is not important to catch the error.

How can I write the exception clause to just go on without raising any error when an exception ocurrs?

I've tried just leaving the clause empty:

...
EXCEPTION
    WHEN OTHERS THEN


end test_trigger;

but it does not compile.

What am I missing? there is some "pass" clause that I should be including?

Answer 1

...
EXCEPTION
    WHEN OTHERS THEN
        NULL;

end test_trigger;
