Our project is a C++ project. We use a third party library that has a C interface. We do not have access to the source code of that third party library. Some core files from our project show that the third party library has a bug that can cause crash on our project. We tried to use try and catch in our project to prevent the bug in the third party library from crashing our application, but it does not work. I wrote a small testing program under Linux/gcc and found out I can not catch exception thrown from a DLL with C interface in my C++ test program. My question is: what is the best way to handle this situation? I want to protect my application from a bug in a third party library. Right now, the only solution I have is to spawn a child process to use the third party library, if the child prcess dies, I can spawn a new child process so that my application will keep on running. Any thoughts? Thanks PingShan Li
