Re: How to handle nested case

Hello!

One way (I haven't actually tried to compile this, but hopefully you
get the idea):

get_nas_from_conf() ->
  try
    {ok, Server} = get_radius_host(),
    {ok, Port} = get_radius_port(),
    {ok, Secret} = get_radius_secret(),
    {Server, Port, Secret};
  catch
    error:{badmatch, E} ->
      E
end.

Of course, if the badmatch comes from the get_* functions, this
construct might catch that too, but you might be able to  ensure this
doesn't happen.
