MESettings.ShowSetting

cefird1 · Post by **cefird1** » Mon Nov 07, 2005 5:16 pm

I have a program that can be run in interactive or batch mode. The mode is determined by a command line parameter. In batch mode, Application.ShowMainForm is set to false in the FormCreate method to hide the main form.

I have used MadExcept Options to set MadExcept to automatically save and send the exceptions. In batch mode, I do not want the Exception Dialog to be displayed, but all other MadExcept actions are to be the same as interactive mode.

With MadExcept 2, everything worked fine if I set ShowExceptionBox to false.

With MadExcept 3, I can prevent the Exception Dialog from showing by setting MESettings.ShowSetting to ssNothing, but the exceptions are not sent. Am I doing anything wrong?

Oops, I meant MESettings.GeneralShowSetting

Strange. Do the mails get sent when you are in interactive mode with madExcept 3?

Please try the latest beta build:

Yes the email is sent in interactive mode.

I just tried it with beta 4, same results

I removed MESettings.GeneralShowSetting and got it to work the way I wanted with the following:

Code: Select all

procedure TfrmMain.MadExceptionHandler1Exception(
  const exceptIntf: IMEException; var handled: Boolean);
var
  s : string;
begin
  if Batch then
  begin
    s := exceptIntf.GetBugReport(true);
    AutoSaveBugReport(s);
    SendBugReport(s,nil);
    CloseApplication;
    handled := true;
  end;
end;

I tried AutoSendBugReport, but it would not send the email. Maybe this will help you track down the problem.

Ah wait! So you've configured madExcept to automatically close when an exception occurs? Yes, there's known bug that auto mailing doesn't work if you configure madExcept that way. Is on my to do list already...

Should be fixed in the latest beta build:
