| -- This package provides routines for accessing the most recently raised |
| -- exception. This may be useful for certain logging activities. It may |
| -- also be useful for mimicing implementation dependent capabilities in |
| -- Ada 83 compilers, but see also GNAT.Current_Exceptions for this usage. |

| package GNAT.Most_Recent_Exception is |

| ----------------- |
| -- Subprograms -- |
| ----------------- |
| |
| function Occurrence |
| return Ada.Exceptions.Exception_Occurrence; |
| -- Returns the Exception_Occurrence for the most recently raised |
| -- exception in the current task. If no exception has been raised |
| -- in the current task prior to the call, returns Null_Occurrence. |
| |
| function Occurrence_Access |
| return Ada.Exceptions.Exception_Occurrence_Access; |
| -- Similar to the above, but returns an access to the occurrence value. |
| -- This value is in a task specific location, and may be validly accessed |
| -- as long as no further exception is raised in the calling task. |
| |
| -- Note: unlike the routines in GNAT.Current_Exception, these functions |
| -- access the most recently raised exception, regardless of where they |
| -- are called. Consider the following example: |
| |
| -- exception |
| -- when Constraint_Error => |
| -- begin |
| -- ... |
| -- exception |
| -- when Tasking_Error => ... |
| -- end; |
| -- |
| -- -- Assuming a Tasking_Error was raised in the inner block, |
| -- -- a call to GNAT.Most_Recent_Exception.Occurrence will |
| -- -- return information about this Tasking_Error exception, |
| -- -- not about the Constraint_Error exception being handled |
| -- -- by the current handler code. |
