Hi,

I'm trying to create a default exception handler dialog for fpGUI. It should display the error message and when the user clicks on the 'Details' button, it should show the full backtrace. For some reason the backtrace I get is much smaller compared to the one if I don't handle exceptions at all (and the program crashes).

Currently I'm simply outputting to the console, until I get this right, which should then output to a Memo component. Here is my code to output a backtrace... called by my default exception handler (try...except block).

procedure DumpStack;
begin
  writeln(' Stack trace:');
  Dump_Stack(StdOut, get_frame);
end;

... which gives the following output to the console.....

$ ./tutoradmin.exe
exception at 0809DAAA:
Unknown parameter HELLO.
 Stack trace:
$080578F3 TFPGAPPLICATION__HANDLEEXCEPTION, line 981 of /home/graemeg/programming/fpGUI/src/corelib/fpgfx.pas $08057A05 TFPGAPPLICATION__RUNMESSAGELOOP, line 1010 of /home/graemeg/programming/fpGUI/src/corelib/fpgfx.pas $080570A1 TFPGAPPLICATION__RUN, line 848 of /home/graemeg/programming/fpGUI/src/corelib/fpgfx.pas
  $080ED713  MAINPROC,  line 70 of tutoradmin.lpr
  $080ED57D  main,  line 79 of tutoradmin.lpr
  $080ED54D


.... Now if I remove the try...except block and let FPC handle the exception (and the program terminates), I get the following output to the console. As you can see, it's a lot more detailed. How do I generate this myself, so I can display this in a Memo component.
