Meaning there is an issue with "raise at addr" but not with "raise" or "raise at addr, frame" ? There are other places in RTL that use "raise at addr, frame" so maybe these few places which use "raise at addr" can be changed, at least as a temporary solution, until a more general patch, as you say, is produced. > >> >> Why is "raise ... at" needed instead of just "raise" ? > > Because if you use 'Raise', then the .error method shows up in the stack > dump, when the real location is actually in the frame above.

I looked at fpc_PushExceptObj and it uses frame pointers to create backtrace, so is there a point in calling "raise at addr" with frameptr=nil? Is sometimes frame pointer not possible to retrieve that such construct is allowed? -- cobines _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
