@grable: The Throw method accept ANY object, so the only safe way to get any exception is using the reflection based example.
You can even do:

Throw New TList

So the only way to handle ANY possible exception is:

Catch ex:Object
	Local ExceptionType:String = TTypeId.ForObject(ex).Name()
	Local ExceptionMessage:String = ex.ToString()

Your example will leave any exception different from TStreamReadException and TStreamWriteException unhandled.
