sorry, that was a Javaism that slipped into my test case. the real code
does throw by value and catch by const reference. as you say, though, if i
change the test case, it doesn't crash.
here are the relevant snippets:
extern "C" JNIEXPORT void JNICALL
Java_terminator_terminal_PtyProcess_sendResizeNotification(JNIEnv* env,
jobject instance, jobject a0, jobject a1) {
try {
terminator_terminal_PtyProcess proxy(env, instance);
proxy.sendResizeNotification(a0, a1);
} catch (const std::exception& ex) {
translateToJavaException(env, "java/io/IOException", ex);
}
}
void terminator_terminal_PtyProcess::sendResizeNotification(jobject
sizeInChars, jobject sizeInPixels) {
throw std::exception();
}
i'm not throwing across shared library boundaries, but i am throwing
within shared library code. (obviously sendResizeNotification usually has
more content, but i've pulled the real content out to try to move closer
to a useful test case.)
i can remove the method call, too. this also crashes:
extern "C" JNIEXPORT void JNICALL
Java_terminator_terminal_PtyProcess_sendResizeNotification(JNIEnv* env,
jobject instance, jobject a0, jobject a1) {
try {
throw std::exception();
} catch (const std::exception& ex) {
}
}
taking the pc from the JVM crash log:
# EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION (0xc0000005) at pc=0x610b48b6, pid=3112,
tid=1244
and the output of "nm cygwin1.dll | sort" suggests we're in
pthread_key_create:
610b47a0 T _pthread_key_create
610b4980 T __ZN11pthread_keyC2EPFvPvE
but i don't know that isn't just an implementation detail. (certainly i
get a lot of seemingly irrelevant matches if i search the web.)
