A question about mixing On Error and Throw

I have a piece of code (which I can't change) that uses On Error for its
error handling. It calls into a piece of code in another assembly that
Throws an exception.

Is there any way in my On Error error handler to determine the stack trace
between where the code is executing and where the exception was thrown? Or
even just the name of the class and procedure in which the exception was
thrown?

As far as I can see there's no way to determine this (there are no
properties of the Err object that tell me, and I don't have an Exception
object to query), is there some clever alternative that I've missed?

Thanks,

Found it now -- the Err object now has a GetException property that returns
the thrown Exception object.

Is PostgreSQL reliable enough to be used for high-end commercial application? Thanks

I'm confused about structured error handling. The following piece of code is a simplification of a class library I'm working on. It works, and it does what I want, but I'm still not convinced that I have been doing it right. I think I overdo it. Please have a look: -- using System; using System.IO;

I am doing development on a machine and everything was working fine. The name of the project was ECS to I made all my references as ~/ECS/... Worked great. Put it on the final server running 2003/IIs 6and it bitched it couldn't find the directory. I created a virtual directory, it complained because web.config wasn't there. I removed the ECS from all the references and it works great on both my devo and the final machine.

Hello all, I have a question and am seeking for some advice. I am currently working to implement an algorithmic library. Because the performance is the most important factor in later applications, I decide to write it in C instead of C++. However, I thought it might be convenient to use some C++ code at some misc places. I'm aware that, I could always use the C++ compiler to get it work.

My parser project calls for a computed goto (see code below). The C preprocessor delivers the desired result, but is ugly. Template metaprogramming delivers results I do not understand. Can anyone explain why loop unrolling doesn't play well with templates? Or better, can someone submit a code fragment to get desired results? Here are the command-lines I use to generate code: "g++ -DTEMPLATE=0 -o gotofun0 gotofun.cpp" works exactly as...
