 No, this is a Microsoft extension, use signal(3) to catch seg faults.
 
 Thanks,

 PS Can someone close this bug, as this extension is one which has
 been discussed before and decided we do not want it.

g++ 3.0.4 on Sun Unix
>Description:
Hi.

I am using g++ 3.0.4 on Sun Unix server.
I just wanted to check whether (...) works or not.
This code works after being compiled by  VC++ , but g++ doesn't.
Is this bug?
Is there any way that I can catch the segmentation fault error using standard C++ try/catch expression?


try {
    X *p;    // Uninitialized to test try/catch for unhandled exception...
    p->get();
} catch(...) {
   cout << "Unhandled exception..";
}

Thanks.
