Hi ...
Is there a way for me to check if given exception that was raised is in the exception filters in the settings window ?

You can use "exceptIntf.Filter1Classes" or "Filter2Classes" to ask the list of classes in the settings window. And you can use "exceptIntf.ExceptClass" to get the class name of the current exception. With all that information, you can simply check if the current exception class is listed in either Filter1Classes or Filter2Classes.

Hi ...

I see the exceptIntf.ExceptClass property but not exceptIntf.Filter1Class or exceptIntf.Filter2Class, are they private ?

Does the compiler complain?

exceptIntf.Filter2Classes;
[dcc32 Error] main.pas(795): E2003 Undeclared identifier: 'Filter2Classes

Yes he does :)

Hmmmm, ok, then try using "MESettings().Filter2Classes" instead of "exceptIntf.Filter2Classes".

Just to be sure that I'm not telling you some bullshit, I'll try to explain my situation again.
I'm inside the OnException event on TMadExceptionHandler.
In my case :
{code}
procedure TfrmMain.adalException(const exceptIntf: IMEException;
var handled: Boolean);
{code}

Here I want to check if the exceptIntf.ExceptClass is in either ExceptionFilter1 og ExceptionFilter2.
Properties Filter1Classes and Filter2Classes are not visible on variable exceptIntf.
Your suggestion to try MESettings() I don't understand, there's no property on the exceptIntf, so I'm not sure what you're telling me :)

Could you please clarify this for me :)
Thanks for quick responses and good service ...

I'm not sure I understand what you're asking. "MESettings().Filter2Classes" works fine for me. So what's the problem?

In what scope is MESettings() a valid variable ?

[dcc32 Error] main.pas(795): E2003 Undeclared identifier: 'MESettings'

It's a function exported by madExcept.pas.

Now we are talking ..., that's what was missing, add madExecpt.pas to my uses clause ( I thought that madExceptVcl.pas was enough).
Thank you for your support
