I am using FPC 2.6.4

   TMyClass =class
   public
     type
        EMyException=class(Exception);
     procedure DoSomething;
   end;
procedure SomeProc;
var aObj : TMyClass;
begin
   try
     aObj := TMyClass.Create;
     aObj.DoSomething;
   except
     On E : TMyClass.EMyException do begin// this will raise Fatal:
Syntax error, "DO" expected but "." found
          //some handling
     end;
   end;
end;
//but the following complies ok
procedure SomeProc;
var aObj : TMyClass;
begin
   With TMyClass do
   try
     aObj := TMyClass.Create;
     aObj.DoSomething;
   except
     On E : EMyException do begin
          //some handling
     end;
   end;
end;

Is this problem solved in FPC 3.0?

Why don't you simply test it? FPC 3.0 is already released after all. And if it doesn't work then it would be best if you report a bug :)

As Sven said, why not test with 3.0 it is released already and quick to install. Anyway I tested with FPC 3.0 and it compiles just fine and the running program behaves as it should.
