BTW, do you know why exceptions don?t return a line number?
Because you forgot to include the "-gl" switch for automatically
including the line info unit?
As I understand it, this option is only helpful when you are struggling with
the debugger.
No. It is also meant for adding more information to the exception backtrace.
My question is: What is the problem to throw the line number on the console as
well as e.message, e.classname and everything else specified in the except
clause, e.g. the contents of a local variable named LastLineDone?
Because you need the debug information for that. Hence the -gl switch.
It adds a HUGE amount of data to your executable, which is why it is not
included by default.
FileName/Linenumber info is only available through debug information.
It's not an interpreted language, but compiled language.
