Hi - The following piece of code does not catch the exception when compiled and executed on Linux based systems. - Compiled using g++ (GCC) 3.4.6 20060404 (Red Hat 3.4.6-9) - Platform: CentOS 4.5
[code] #include <iostream> #include <exception> #include <string> using namespace std; int main() { char *str = 0; try { // int i = 0; // int j = 1/i; // Uncommenting this would not go into catch block. But gives "Floating Point Exception" strstr(str,"hello"); // str is NULL -> exception! } catch (...) { cout<<"Error!"<<endl; } } [/code] Compiled as [prompt]$ g++ except.cpp Questions: 1) Are there any compiler/linker flags to be added? - Info: I tried with -fexceptions and -fnon-call-exceptions flags 2) Is there any other way to catch All Exceptions? Similar code was tried using VC++ on a windows system. It works. i.e, control does move to the catch block and execute as expected. _______________________________________________ help-gplusplus mailing list help-gplusplus@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-gplusplus
