Consider the following situation: try // Exception raised here except // Handle first exception. // but !! Second exception raised here.. end; Only the second exception will be visible. The first one is hidden. Michael. _ To unsubscribe: mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe" as the Subject archives at http://www.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailarchives

"Unicode VCL" is on the roadmap for the release after the upcoming one. So that is going to take at least an year. It sounds like a second VCL compiled for unicode, but the info is so thin at this point it could be anything. _ To unsubscribe: mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe" as the Subject archives at http://www.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailarchives

It means there is a place where you do not take into account that an exception may occur ? (or there is an error in the Lazarus exception handling routines) Michael. Yes, I know - a object handler was used, but it was Nill. Michael, it was NOT raised SOMEWHERE - it was raised AFTER I try to prevent it! So before it I should see my exception for "File not exist" and program should stop waiting for my reaction (as it typically in Delphi and Sibyl). Sorry - ones more - my question was about this strange situation. So, actually - I am unable to handle any exception - in all cases I will see only Access violation. So, tell me please, how and for what can I use "Raise Exception.Create(...)? It seems that it is useless. *Regards, Alexey.* Maybe you should turn off the Application Exception handler. That way, the second exception most likely doesn't occur.
