Check/Change email settings at run time
Posted: Wed Dec 14, 2016 2:27 pm
It's been awhile since I've used madExcept. I'm now doing support for a large Delphi app and I have an issue from a client where the madExcept process is failing to send in the bug report via email. Simple enough, the client doesn't use smtp email from his laptop and I think that is how the app was configured (I didn't write it).
The app is auto built via Jenkins on one of the corporate Windows 2008 servers. Code changes are handled via GitLab, where uploads into any branch will trigger a new build. I can browse the madExcept folder where the build happens but I don't see where the settings are stored. mad.inc seems to be the only config file in that directory. Where do I go to see/change the settings so I can send him a special build? Or is there a way to change the email settings in the field at run time before the exception happens?
After this, I think I'll recommend to the company to use the web service reporting option, but until then, it would be great if I can help out this user.
Thanks
