The double-while pattern

Ok, this started with a mysql bug with foreign keys : the schema just crashes randomly with syntax errors, but "sometime" succeeds.

No problem, here comes the "While Pattern".

Problem to solve :
A program crashes randomly but sometimes work

Solution :

boolean success;
do {
  try {
    buggyProgram();
    success = true;
  } catch (... well anything) {
  }
} while (!success);

Bonus point : the low voltage version with a 1sec sleep after the buggy program call.

Stay tuned for the double while pattern ;-)
