You would also need to disable exceptions in STL. MSVC will link exception and no exception code without a warning.
Exception thrown from exception handling DLL or object file to non exception using main() results in a crash and call to terminate() Exception thrown through a non exception handling DLL or object file is caught, but with intermediate destructors not called. i.e. with this proposal, if application code calls a Qt function inside a try block, and throws an exception from application code callback or plugin code, it may silently fail by catching the exception but the intermediate stack objects of the Qt code not having been cleaned up. -- > -----Original Message----- > From: [email protected] > [mailto:[email protected]] > On Behalf Of [email protected] > Sent: 10 May 2012 21:18 > To: [email protected]; [email protected] > Subject: Re: [Development] Enable Exceptions for Windows CE as default > > On 5/10/12 5:13 PM, "ext Olivier Goffart" <[email protected]> wrote: > > >On Thursday 10 May 2012 07:10:51 [email protected] wrote: > >> On 5/10/12 4:20 AM, "ext Thiago Macieira" > <[email protected]> > >> > >> wrote: > >> >On quarta-feira, 9 de maio de 2012 21.39.53, [email protected] > >>wrote: > >> >> How about this then? > >> >> > >> >> https://codereview.qt-project.org/#change,25788 > >> >> > >> >> https://codereview.qt-project.org/#change,25787 > >> > > >> >Yes, something like that.
