Delphi not responding to errors..

[Ian Branch 127]

Hi Team,

D10.3.1.  32 bit.

For reasons I don't understand my Apps have stopped responding to basic error.  e.g. divide by 0 error.  They just ignore them.  They used to work.

If I create a new App it responds OK but my existing apps don't.

It is probably something I have changed but I can't discern what.

Any advice/suggestions (polite :-) ) appreciated.

Regards & TIA,

Ian

Check Build configuration in your project (Debug, Release). In a new project the build configuration is Debug by default.

Then check Runtime errors settings for the current configuration in Project options | Building | Delphi compiler | Compiling. There is good reason to have all three settings (I/O, overflow, range checking) enabled for any type of Build configuration.

Thanks Kruvich.

I have it working now.  What I have yet to find out is how/when it changed. :-(

Attached are my current configurations.

Regards & Tks for the pointers.

You can tell the debugger to ignore certain types of exceptions, this is offered as a button on the exception dialog you get when the IDE debugger catches an exception. Perhaps you did this by accident.

 

Call up the Tools --> Options dialog,on the left scroll down to the end of the list. There you find a "debugger options" node with two subnodes for language and OS exceptions. The associated pages list the exception types to ignore; you can reactivate them there as well. see the attached dcreenshot, unfortunately from  a german IDE.
