Crash exceptions?

Look in the msdn for "Structured exception handling" and "GetExceptionCode",
or "EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION".

Btw, if I remember correctly, you had to switch some compilersettings
to get it to work... and I remember it being a pain in the ass,
because it didn't work with a simple catch (...) block (you couldn't
get the errorcode easily)...

If you have any luck getting a nice & clean solution, keep us posted :)

In Visual C++ 6.0:

- Start a debugging session (doesn't matter what you debug, just get the IDE into debug mode)
- Click View
- Click Exceptions


In Visual C++ .Net 2003:

- Click Debug (IIRC - one of the top level menus)
- Click Exceptions


This article also shows some more in-depth information on how exception codes are calculated and lists some additional examples of the most common exceptions (in case you don't use VC++). I'm sure there's a complete reference out there someplace, but Google is not being nice to me at the moment.

The solution I have found is to use _set_se_translator.
This functions sets a function that translates C exception into whatever exception you wnat, example:

class WindowsError {	public:		PEXCEPTION_POINTERS Ptr;};static void se_translator (unsigned int e, PEXCEPTION_POINTERS p){	WindowsError WinErr;	WinErr.Ptr = p;	throw WinErr;}	_set_se_translator (se_translator);

I found this valuable information in my old book about VisualC++5.
