At present, an exception could be thrown in a pthread and
fail to be caught, in which case, behaviour is undefined.
This can be fixed as follows: given the client init
procedure cp, and client data pointer cd, instead of
calling pthread.init(cp,fp) [pseudo code!] we instead
do this:
struct cpd_wrapper {
pthread_init_proc_t *cp;
void *cd;
}
pthread.init(fixed_routine, new cpd_wrapper(cp,cd));
void fixed_routine(void *vcpd) {
cpd_wrapper *cpd = (cpd_wrapper*)vcpd;
pthread_init_proc_t *cp = cpd->cp;
void *cd = cpd->cd;
delete cpd;
try { cp(cd); }
catch (...) { abort(); }
}
This is completely transparent, but ensures that an uncaught
exception will be detected.
