Rohit,
Firstly, unit initialization happens BEFORE your try-except clause. In
fact, unit initialization happens BEFORE the begin. So what can you do
about this?
1. Put all initialization / finalization code that can raise exceptions
into procedures in the unit(s).
2. Create a new unit.
3. Use the SysUtils unit and the other units with initialization /
finalization code moved into procedures.
4. In the initialization section, call all the initialization code. This
way, if one of them raises an exception, the others will automatically be
skipped. With this you can also explicitly control the order in which the
units are initialized.
5. Do the same for finalization, except that you reverse the order in which
you call finalization code.
Hope this helps.
