Basic procedures

After you've added EurekaLog to your application - you probably want to configure it, so EurekaLog will better suit your needs.

Usually, our customers do these kind of configurations:

The best way to ensure satisfaction is to insert an artificial "bug" in your application and ensure that EurekaLog behaves as you expect and want. And if it's not - then adjust EurekaLog's settings.

If you write a GUI application - we recommend to place a button on main form and place this code to it's OnClick handler:

procedure TForm1.Button1Click(Sender: TObject);

begin

  raise Exception.Create('Test exception for EurekaLog');

end;

Clicking on such button should invoke EurekaLog's processing and you could check its behaviour on your machine - before deploying application to the clients.

If you configure your application to catch leaks - you can use this code to test EurekaLog's behaviour for leaks:

procedure TForm1.Button2Click(Sender: TObject);

begin

  AllocMem(10240);

end;

Note: it's important to test both exceptions AND leaks, because their processing is very different.
