Re: c++ char exceptions


It aborts with g++ 2.95.4 on Debian PowerPC Linux too.

But if I compile it with CodeWarrior 6 on Windows it runs normally, doesn't 
crash, and gives the exit code of 1.

I think CodeWarrior is correct, and that this is a bug in g++, but not in cygwin.

Thus it was written:
I don't know if this is a cygwin issue or if I am doing something
fundamentally wrong...

int
main (int argc, char **argv)
{
   try
     {
       throw "catch this";
     }
   catch (char *message)
     {
       return 1;
     }
   return 0;
}

coredumps on me. Throwing int's works fine. Throwing (string) "foo"
works fine.
