Hello,

In my applications there is an error logging routine to capture the obvious errors; the task for MadExcept is to handle the unexpected errors. And very nicely it does too, thank you.

However, I would like to record those errors (the type and the message) in the error logging, so I have added the MadExceptionHandler component to my Delphi project, and created an "On Exception" event.

Hi, Madshi,

It was a long day. I've slept since then, and when I had another look at the documentation, it all seems a lot clearer.

I am using something like this:

Hi Phil,

it doesn't start with a "T" because it's an interface and not a type/object. An interface is similar to an object, but it's cleverer because it's reference counted (like Delphi dynamic strings) and so you don't have to deal with manually freeing the interface. Delphi does that automatically when it's not needed, anymore. That's why I like to use interfaces instead of objects.

Hi, Madshi,

Thanks for the explanation. As you have probably have guessed, I do not use interfaces nor understand them very well, so I found your comments interesting.

Thanks,
PhilW.
