...change EurekaLog's settings at run-time?

Previous pageReturn to chapter overviewNext page   

EurekaLog options are represented by TEurekaModuleOptions class from EClasses unit.

 

Note: description of almost every option contains name of corresponding property of TEurekaModuleOptions class. For example:

 

1. "Save bug report to file" (.SaveLogFile) option enables saving...

 

This means that you can change this option at run-time by altering the .SaveLogFile property of TEurekaModuleOptions instance (see below).

 

If there is no mention of corresponding property - this means that:

this option can not be changed at run-time:
ooption affects only compilation - for example, stripping relocation tables, or encrypting injecting debug information;
ooption can not be changed after initial setup - for example, using low-level hooks, or installing memory manager filter to catch leaks;
option is changed by other means (for example, leaks and memory options are changed by routines in EMemLeaks unit; hang detection options are changed by routines in EFreeze unit).

 

 

Option 1

Assuming you have EurekaLog's exception information object (e.g. inside event handler) - you can use .Options property:

 

{ ... } AExceptionInfo: TEurekaExceptionInfo; { ... }
 
AExceptionInfo.Options.SaveLogFile := False;

 

 

Option 2

Global options are returned by CurrentEurekaLogOptions function from EModules unit:

 

uses
  EModules; // for CurrentEurekaLogOptions
 
CurrentEurekaLogOptions.SaveLogFile := False;

 

 

Important Note: altering global options will not affect options of already raised exceptions. If you want to change options for a particular exception - obtain EurekaLog's exception information object for that exception and use .Options property (as shown in "option 1" above). E.g.:

 

uses
  EEvents;
 
procedure MyExceptionNotifyHandler(const ACustom: Pointer; 
  AExceptionInfo: TEurekaExceptionInfo; 
  var AHandle: Boolean; 
  var ACallNextHandler: Boolean);
begin
  CurrentEurekaLogOptions.SaveLogFile := False; // <- this is wrong!
  AExceptionInfo.Options.SaveLogFile := False;  // <- correct!
end;
 
initialization
  CurrentEurekaLogOptions.SaveLogFile := True; // <- correct!
  AExceptionInfo.Options.SaveLogFile := True;  // <- this is wrong!
 
  RegisterEventExceptionNotify(nil, MyExceptionNotifyHandler);
end.
