What is the difference to madexcept?
ReplyDeleteFriedrich WestermannThe products are similar, but we believe that EurekaLog has superior customization.
ReplyDeleteYou can override most of our logging behavior, create custom error dialogs (or no error dialog at all).
You can also modify our "Senders" that deliver bug report logs back to your development team by a variety of methods.
You can also customize EurekaLog to send non-crash bug reports and customer feature requests to your support team.
We invite you to download and install our free trial version and see for yourself:

The big benefit of madExcept from my point of view is that it is completely free in non commercial projects which means you can use it even in your hobby projects to make your life easier.
ReplyDeleteI have never done this because there was no need but I think also in madExcept you can customize all the dialogs and handle sending bug reports to some issue tracker automatically.
Attila Kovacs Let's say for work you are using madExcept you can also use it at home for your pet projects and learn more about it without asking your employer to give you permission to use it at home. Another benefit of free usage for non commercial projects is that hobby developers can already become familiar with such a library. How many hobby developers every day are asking "stupid" questions of how to find a bug because all they have is that "ESomethingException with message "whoops" dialog or doing
ReplyDeleteAttila Kovacs Not my job to convince you as I am not the vendor of either - just a very satisfied user of madExcept.
ReplyDelete"madexcept catches all exceptions, even the handled ones!?" Like you have a try except block and madExcept still shows the bugreport dialog? Definitely no.
ReplyDeleteAttila Kovacs Yes, Application.OnException does not trigger anymore when using madExcept (http://help.madshi.net/HowToUseMadExcept.htm)
ReplyDeleteIMO this is a good behavior because Application.OnException does pokemon exception handling ("gonna catch them all") as there is no handled parameter that you can set which I consider bad.
The next release of EurekaLog will have a completely redesigned post processor. We are seeing an astonishing speed increase in processing time. It also can handle much larger applications than before without running out of memory.
