The main purpose of this library is to provide uniform interface for seamless handling of signals and exceptions.
This project is focused on simplicity and flexibility - it does not even try to mimic C++ exceptions system - instead, it offers only few simple functions and macros which can be easily combined with custom user code to tune the functionality for particular use cases.

Features

  • separate, mprotect()-ed, per-thread stacks for signal handlers.
  • separate, mprotect()-ed, per-thread stacks for exceptions data.
  • no dynamic heap allocations (excluding initialization).
  • nested exceptions (including CATCH section).
  • support for separate signal handlers per each exception' nesting level.
  • support for POSIX real-time signals.
  • automatic thread crash detection.
  • restartable TRY section.
  • exceptions stack backtracing.
  • manpage included.
