Re: Structured exception information

X : My_Type := My_Constructor(Some_Parameters);

If there are problems during the execution of the constructor
function, the exception is raised, so that there is no X object in a
bad state.
How can I pass some error information from the constructor function
out, so that it's used when the exception is handled?

Why do you want to? Generally, all you can do is report the error to
the user.

Can you give a detailed example of passing more complex information
that is actually used?
