That's what I am doing...

Yes, I want to add my own options.
(My debugger isn't a GDB debugger.)

"Other debugger" is exactly, what I am trying to implement.

When launching the debugger, some errors may occur. I am
throwing exceptions with descriptions, but the Eclipse
UI only shows "An exception occurred while launching debugger".
This is not very informative to the user, so I'd like to give
an additional statement, telling him what happened exactly.

Mikhail suggested, to catch the exception in the UI plugin.
Is this possible? Can I throw an exception in the core, and
catch it in ui?

Thanks for your help,

Rudi
