showDialog
showDialog(): Boolean;
The showDialog method of the Exception class displays the default exception dialog, which provides details of the current exception and buttons that enable you to:
-
Abort, which aborts the action, effectively terminating the code that was executing at the time of the exception.
-
Debug, which displays a Call Stack Browser that enables you to browse methods in the call stack and to inspect parameters and local variables.
-
Ignore (continue), which ignores the exception and continues execution from the next expression after the expression that caused the exception. (The Ignore button is enabled only if the exception is continuable and the system is not in production mode.)
The exception dialog can be closed by clicking the Abort button or the Ignore button (if the exception is continuable). If the exception can be ignored and the user clicks the Ignore button, the showDialog method returns true. If the user clicks the Abort button, the showDialog method returns false.

This method can be called from a user-defined exception handler and it can be called by the defaultHandler method. (For more details, see the Exception class defaultHandler method, earlier in this section.) See also "
