I have two files. One in c compiled with gcc, and other in c++ compiled with g++. From c++ is called helper function in c with pointer to error handler as parameter. Error handler (in c++) execute throw, but it is not catched as I expected. Instead is called default terminate() function.
I observe this bug on i685 in gcc-2.95 (debian), gcc-3.3.6 (debian), gcc-3.4.5 (gentoo), gcc-3.4.6 (ubuntu) and gcc-4.0.3 (ubuntu). I also tested it on x86_64 in gcc-3.3.3 (SuSE). With -m32 i get this error but with -m64 the exception is catched! -- Summary: throw cause terminate() instead of catch Product: gcc Version: 4.0.3 Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: c++ AssignedTo: unassigned at gcc dot gnu dot org ReportedBy: mlazar at kma dot zcu dot cz GCC build triplet: i486-pc-linux-gnu GCC host triplet: i486-pc-linux-gnu GCC target triplet: i486-pc-linux-gnu http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=27098
