Re: CallThreadProcSafe and performance monitoring tools

so from your description, I understand that there should be no extra cost added by this procedure, unless an exception is raised (which, if it wasn't for MadExcept, would have propagated the Exception further upwards anyway).

thanks again!

Hello, I am using performance monitoring tools to track bottlenecks in my application. while doing so, the function CallThreadProcSafe from unit MadExcept is topping the list. according to the attached screenshot, it is called once and is taking over 50% of the execution time. aqtime.png This probab...

Re: design-time access violations no longer showing a MadExcept stack trace

sorry for the late answer, i just checked: the aforementioned BPL has been in my installed packages for a long time (manually installed).
yet I am unable to get design-time access-violations stack trace.

is there anything else I should be checking?
thanks!

design-time access violations no longer showing a MadExcept stack trace

hello, at some point in time, i recall clearly dropping a design-time component on a form, which caused an access violation. that one time, a MadExcept bugreport showed up with full stack trace information. but for some reason, this is no longer showing, and i only get the standard Delphi "acce...

LAN network connection, via WiFi or Ethernet?

Hello,

Is there a way, using the BugReport, to know whether the computer was connected to a LAN using the WiFi or Ethernet?
I got a bug report mentioning a network connection drop, and trying to better understand the computer's setup.

customize MadExcept parameters (message, icon...) based on the Exception class?

some exceptions classes are more severe than others, some may be system failures, others may be critical to operations, and others even, just a user input error. I have already customized many aspects of the bug report, and this has been working great. But is there a way to apply different customiza...

Re: altering the bugreport dialog's icon

in GIMP's "export image as BMP" dialog, under "Advanced / 32-bit", i tried exporting in both available options, namely: - "A8 R8 G8 B8", where i assume A8 is the 8-bit alpha channel - "X8 R8 G8 B8" (no clue what X stands for, but tried nonetheless due to lack ...

altering the bugreport dialog's icon

Hello, I've been trying to replace the bugreport's red X icon with a custom BMP, but am stuck on either: - getting a warning message asking for a 32x32 TrueColor icon with Alpha channel, or - not getting a warning at all, and instead getting what looks like a fully transparent icon (no icon at all) ...

detect at runtime if leak detection is active

As was mentioned in other threads, even if leak detection is programmatically enabled (in the mes file), detection will not be truly active if the madexcept32.dll is not found. Is there a way to detect whether leak detection is truly active and taking place (enabled in .mes, and DLL found) at runtim...

Re: ignoring memory leaks using HideLeak

My bad, something must have gone funny: Reinstalling madexcept, all the overloaded functions are now available. However, the issue I was facing was due to the runtime call to StartLeakChecking. Any prior call to HideLeak was being ignored. Swapping the two lines such that StartLeakChecking is the fi...

ignoring memory leaks using HideLeak

There seems to be a known memory leak when it comes to Windows and critical sections. Namely, the same InitializeCriticalSection leak from FireDAC's sqlite gets reported exactly 12 times, even if i repeat the same operation more often than that; as if the resources are kept for later use. I would li...

MAPI, plain text report instead of attachment

hello,

i've seen that MAPI isn't the most suggested method around here, but here goes:
is there a way to have the bug report as plain text inside the mail body, as opposed to attachment?

and if not, is this maybe possible with SMTP? (so far, SMTP is completely failing with all my attempts)

Thanks!
