[Bug target/42886] [4.5 Regression] GCC is not relocatable anymore on Windows (mingw32)
--- Comment #3 from andriys at gmail dot com 2010-03-21 08:15 --- (In reply to comment #1) This is probably due to the way you built GCC. To have a completely relocatable toolchain, you need to use the --with-sysroot option to configure, I've just checked out the latest sources from trunk, as well as consulted the previously fetched sources. There are no such option to configure as --with-sysroot. Did you mean --with-build-sysroot? -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=42886

[Bug target/40918] uncaught_exception() returns wrong (inverted) value if some exception have crossed a DLL boundary before
--- Comment #9 from andriys at gmail dot com 2010-01-26 12:16 --- Well, I have finally managed to build the trunk on Windows (mingw32). Now all test cases work fine for me without any patches (as of revision 156168 at least). Thanks. -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=40918

--- Comment #6 from andriys at gmail dot com 2009-08-04 13:41 --- (In reply to comment #5) I cannot comment on the build of libsdc++.dll in the mingw 4.4.0 release since I have not looked at that source. There is a patch file that is shipped along with the mingw 4.4.0 build instructions/script. The patch adds most of the essential things that the Dave Korn's patch does (i.e. __attribute__((dllimport)) decorations and -no-undefined linker option.) I believe the official MinGW binaries were built with that patch applied. Well, there are your E-mail at the top of that patch file... Applying Dave Korn's patch mentioned in Comment #2, and linking against libstdc++.dll, I get this with your original testcaase: Expecting 'true', got 'true' Expecting 'false', got 'false' Where this patch is supposed to be applied to? trunk? I have looked through the patches you are referring to and through the source in repository. As far as I can see, libsupc++ is still static only, and eh_globals.cc is a part of libsupc++, not libstdc++. The fact that test-case works correctly for you could be just a coincidence. The more reliable way to check for the problem would be to compare the value returned by the __cxa_get_globals() when being from the main executable and from the dll respectively. I'll prepare the new test case. -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=40918

--- Comment #3 from andriys at gmail dot com 2009-07-31 06:56 --- I'm linking using g++ driver, so shared libgcc is enabled by default in 4.4.0. I've just tried to enabled shared libstdc++ as described in the Release Notes to the MinGW GCC 4.4.0 release, which made no difference. More over, I modified the test case the following way: I got rid of std::cout in favor of printf(), added -nodefaultlibs option to the linker and specified all the required libraries manually. Now libstdc++ is not linked at all (neither static nor dynamic), the bug is still here. I'll attach the modified test case shortly. -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=40918

[Bug c++/40918] New: uncaught_exception() returns wrong (inverted) value if some exception have crossed a DLL boundary before
I was not able to reproduce the bug on Linux, so I assume this is a Windows-specific. If an exception is generated inside shared library (DLL), then crosses the DLL-boundary and gets caught in some other module, the std::uncaught_exception will always return wrong (inverted) value from now on. Here's a small test case. The DLL (throw.dll) contains just a single function that throws an exception: throw.cpp ~ void do_throw(void) { throw(); } The test program (test.exe) is linked against throw.dll: test.cpp #include exception #include iostream bool b; void do_throw(void); struct UE { ~UE() { b = std::uncaught_exception(); } }; int main(void) { try { do_throw(); } catch (...) { } try { UE ue; throw ; } catch (...) { } std::cout Expecting 'true', got (b ? 'true' : 'false') std::endl; { UE ue; } std::cout Expecting 'false', got (b ? 'true' : 'false') std::endl; return 0; } test.exe produces the following output: C:\TEMP\bugtest.exe Expecting 'true', got 'false' Expecting 'false', got 'true' If we comment out the call to do_throw(), std::uncaught_exception will work as expected. If we put do_throw() in a statically linked module, std::uncaught_exception will work as expected as well. -- Summary: uncaught_exception() returns wrong (inverted) value if some exception have crossed a DLL boundary before Product: gcc Version: 4.4.0 Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: c++ AssignedTo: unassigned at gcc dot gnu dot org ReportedBy: andriys at gmail dot com GCC host triplet: mingw32 http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=40918
