Thread crash

[Daniel Etzold]

Hi,
how can I prevent my parent from crashing when one of its threads crashes?
The following example causes the thread to crash but its father, too.

#include <iostream>
#include "cc++/thread.h"

class A : public Thread
{
  public:
    A() { };
  protected:
    virtual void Run()
      {
        cout << "hello" << endl;
        int *p = 0;
        *p = 10;   // force crash
      }
};

int main()
{
  A *a = new A();
  a->Start();
  while(1) sleep(1);
}

thanks

I think you have to use try-catch in Run() so that you can handle the exception.

Strange, I tested it with try-catch in Run() and it still crashes.

C++ Exception handling cannot cross thread boundries.
