Essentially MAPI is a malware vector, and some versions of Microsoft Outlook have a "UAC prompt" attached to MAPI. For this and other reasons, I DO NOT RECOMMEND using MAPI interface with mad-except any more. I do not recommend SMTP (or any other thing that is Not on port 80) because of th...

Okay, just for reference, the exception stack trace above should have produced output like this, and only the FIRST line works, so I'm seeing "02a3d831 +055 PRISAPI.DLL ServerInfoService_Impl 75 +2 TServerInfoService.GenerateServerException" and that's it. thread $c6c: 02a3d831 +055 PRISAP...

I have an interesting problem. MadExcept works GREAT on my 32 bit ISAPI DLL that runs inside Windows web-server (IIS7). However the same Delphi DLL when built as Win64 does not work. Here is a sample bug report, showing ONLY A SINGLE LEVEL on the exception stack trace for the thread. Note that if I ...

Maybe a more general sample would be helpful?

I have a TTimer in my main form, don't we all? It's called Timer1, a good healthy name. (Not really.) Anyways, I have several choices, as I see it: - Don't do catch-all and let a mad except dialog pop up repeatedly driving clients insane. - Catch all exceptions, and trace one line of text that there...

This issue is caused by Windows Terminal Server systems, and Citrix systems, both of which are based on similar core technologies, and both of which rely on the same kind of stupid hacks to operate, which in the end results in both turning into a pile of festering rabbit droppings. Seriously. Here's...

I'm assuming that "wts client name" would be blank or that whole line would be not in the bugreport, if the client system is NOT a terminal server session, right?
