Standard Exception Classes and Routines The
SysUtils
and
System
units declare several standard routines for handling exceptions, including ExceptObject,
ExceptAddr
, and
ShowException.
SysUtils
,
System
and other units also include dozens of exception classes, all of which (aside
from
OutlineError
) derive from Exception.
The Exception class has properties called Message and
HelpContext
that can be used to pass an error description
and a context ID for context-sensitive online documentation. It also defines various constructor methods that allow
you to specify the description and context ID in different ways.
