Error handing in embedded applications [message #42960] Mon, 07 March 2005 18:16

Folks,

Does anyone understand error handling in embedded applications?
I've got a bomb-proof program. CATCH error handlers everywhere.
When an error occurs, I go to my error handling code. If in
normal IDL, all is well, I return all the way back to the
event loop level and I carry on, no big deal.

In my embedded application, the same error gets into the
CATCH, and then goes--apparently--to a different error
handler where the words "Please consult the supplier of
this application" is appended to the error message.

Fair enough. Except that the supplier of the application
can't debug a program that disappears from the display
with a sarcastic message and a fit of temper. :-(

Any ideas?

Cheers,

David
