What should "NSExceptionMask" be implemented as? SHould it be a
boolean that determines if we should allow the application to
continue or not?
That is to say
* NSExceptionMask = YES - report all exceptions, but continue
anyway...
* NSExceptionMask = NO - current behavior
If so, I have a patch almost ready. I'll submit it to the group
prior to committing it since a change that is this important needs
to have some amount of consensus.
Looks good to me. I think I would prefer three options:
1) Crash / go to debugger on uncaught exception.
2) NSLog the exception and continue.
3) Pop up a modal dialog asking the user to choose between the two
behaviours.
Option 3 would be useful for debugging. I don't like the current
behaviour, since the dialog is non-modal and the app appears to
continue for a little while behind it then die, and neither button has
ever actually done anything when I've clicked on it...
