1471.0. "UNWIND BLOWING..." by ANNECY::ROUIBAH_N () Fri Jan 24 1997 11:13

Hi,

	Cross posted to CMA and DCE conferences.

	I have a customer reporting a problem we had internaly 2 month ago
	but with different environment, help will be appreciated.

	They migrated an application from D. Unix 3.2g to 4.0a.

	The application is developped in C. It runs fine on 3.2c.
	They compiled with -thread flag on 4.0A.

	The error they reported on 4.0A is :

	Exception system: exiting du to internal error: exception dispatch
	or unwind stack in infinite loop.

	We had a similar error 2 month ago with another program, but it was
	in C++ a conflict with exception handling in C++ and threads.
	We applied patch 106 that cured our problem.
	I suppose patch 106 is already in D. Unix 4.0A.

	Nourrdine, Peter Portante has recently found and fixed a bug in libexc which could cause memory corruptions. I don't know whether it could result in this particular effect. However, Peter is out of the office today, so I can't consult with him; perhaps he'll respond to this note on Monday. Webb

Nourrdine,

Peter Portante has recently found and fixed a bug in libexc which could cause
memory corruptions.  I don't know whether it could result in this particular
effect.  However, Peter is out of the office today, so I can't consult with
him; perhaps he'll respond to this note on Monday.
