Hooking a Stacktrace in Delphi 2009
- by Jim McKeeth
The Exception class in Delphi 2009 received a number of new features. A number of them are related to getting a stacktrace:
property StackTrace: string *read* GetStackTrace;
property StackInfo: Pointer read FStackInfo;
class var GetExceptionStackInfoProc: function (P: PExceptionRecord): Pointer;
class var GetStackInfoStringProc: function (Info: Pointer): string;
class var CleanUpStackInfoProc: procedure (Info: Pointer);
Has anyone used these to obtain a stack trace yet? Yeah, I know there are other ways to get a stack trace, but if it is supported natively in the Exception class I would rather leverage that.
Update: There is an interest blog post about this. Covers it in a lot of depth.
