There's a function to get the current exception somewhere. Please take a look at your C++ standard library runtime documentation. I have no need of knowing which functions those are and how they operate because I don't use exceptions, so I can't help further. > A terminate handler takes no parameter and returns void.

I could live without it, but find it very convenient. You don't need a log output for that. If you don't catch the exception, it will cause the application to terminate (with a core dump, if you have that enabled), so you can not only get the exception name, you get the exact backtrace of how you got there and the state of the variables leading to the throwing. -- Thiago Macieira - thiago.macieira (AT) intel.com Software Architect - Intel Open Source Technology Center _______________________________________________ Interest mailing list Interest@qt-project.org http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/interest
