Others will profit from better error message, yes. But Isao's problem won't be solved by that. > We have fg that just aborts. That is a problem regardless of the availability > of a soundcard. One cause for this is that people use wrongly compiled freeglut/SDL libs, where exceptions aren't enabled and thus the stack unwinding informaion is lost. So the boostrap function never gets the exception, but rather calls terminate() and aborts. This is not a FlightGear bug. OTOH, we suffer from it and should maybe add a hint to the error message or a trouble-shooting README. > Do you already have a clue where in simgears code this exception is thrown? Nope. But linking with a (free)glut/SDL lib that was configured/compiled/linked with CFLAGS="-fexceptions $CFLAGS" LDFLAGS="-fexceptions $LDFLAGS" ./configure should be more helpful. m. :-) ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
