Well the type of failure assertion errors I get doesn't even crash the app (most of the time). The app continue running just fine. Sometimes it just continuously shows the dialog, but when I break into IDE it can still run (but it becomes less stable), meaning we can still a least see where the error occurred with the exception.

Maybe instead, it should still show the dialog, but if you click continue, the exception error would occur. i don't see any downside with this.

The problem is that by the time you get a failed assertion things are so messed up that running reliably beyond that point is impossible. The annoying dialog helps RS if we send in the line number and file name to them.

I have a great feature request for those of you who are like me that is sick and tired of those failure assertion that pops up everywhere, but nearly impossible to fix. With a failure assertion exception, we can finally track down where it happens instead of quitting or stuck trying to track it down. It'll help us fix our code and help Real Software fix the failure assertion since we know what the cause is by tracking it down.
