back in the [g]?olden days of TP6, i used to be able to set an exitproc

something like
exitproc := @myexitproc;
is this still able to be done easily? does it work even if there's an
untrapped
exception?
Yes.
Yes, as long as the exception is handled (caught) by the RTL.
do you mean that it cannot be a "unhandled exception" with ''crash'' and
heaptrace dumping the thousands of left-behind memory blocks that weren't
deallocated?? that's what i'm trying to get past... i want to see the error and
unhandled exceptions but i really want to properly deallocate the 40000+ * 5
records on the heap instead of having to either wait for heaptrace to finish
dumping them or forcibly closing the task or (in the worst cases) rebooting the
entire machine...
this is a console app based on tapplication (mainly for parameter parsing
capability) and i have no clue (yet) how to catch exceptions and deal with them
properly...
additionally, this last time i had to deal with this, fpc 2.6.4 release for OS/2
was dieing with "unknown error 110" (IIRC) during runtime... i finally
determined this to be from trying to reset a file that didn't exist where the
path was pointing to... goofy error on my part that i fixed by fsplitting the
pattern and adding the directory portion back to the initial directory path
being used... in any case, i thought i should also mention this so that it can
be corrected so it is not ""unknown"" any more ;)
