FWIW, I've patched the exception handler in ASyncReceive as below. If there
are objections, please explain them so I can determine another solution.
except
on E:Exception do begin
bMore := FALSE;
HandleBackGroundException(E);
end;
end;
One thing to note is that applications that currently depend on Abort not
being called here will need to implement OnBgException and set CanAbort to
False. Now, how will the code in OnBgException know the exception came from
ASyncReceive? That's up to the application developer to figure out, I
suppose.
