Ooops ... Forgot to mention that autonomous transactions are a topic which may be of interest to you as well. The idea is : 1) write a procedure which takes as input parameter a string (you will pass the error message) and any information of interest to you. I call it log_proc(). In this procedure AND IN AN AUTONOMOUS TRANSACTION, you insert into a log table and commit.
2) In your exception handler you just put :

                   log_proc(SQLERRM, ...)
                   raise;

The error will be logged, the error will be propagated up the call chain, and the log entry will stay even if you rollback your transaction. Et voila.
