What is 0x0eedfade exception?

[Dmitry Streblechenko]

0x0EEDFADE is an exception code generated by the Delphi run-time.
Do you have any applications written in Delphi (such as OutlookSpy)
installed? Note that some exceptions (especially language specific
exceptions) are raised (and handled) on purpose as a part of the normal code
execution path.

Hello all,

Sorry if this is a FAQ. BTW, is there a FAQ somewhere?

Anyway, I see the following line in the dubugger output window, once in a
while:

First-chance exception at 0x7c81eb33 in outlook.exe: 0x0EEDFADE: 0xeedfade.

When it is shown, it is shown several times in a row.

I wonder if this has anything to do with the activity of my addin. I can't
see any abnormal behaviour on my side, but I wonder. Peraps I will see
something once I'll start stressing my addin.

I write my addin in ATL/C++ using VS2005 and run it in Outlook 2003.

Thanks a lot in advance,
Boaz.

I do have OutlookSpy running. I'll take this opportunity to thank you for
making this tool, Dmitry. I know that exceptions can be normal behaviour of
code, I just wanted to be sure that I'm safe.

Thanks a lot,
Boaz.
