The following gives "segmentation fault", but maybe it should throw an excetion
like running out of array limits? I I think that it is almost as common mistake
as running out of array bounds.


What do you think about this?

class Ca{
public:
int b;
}

int main(){
Ca a;
try{
a.b=1;
}
catch(Exception e){
printf("ERROR!\n");

}
return 0;
}

i'm using windows though.  i suppose you're using linux?

Is it so Walter?

This is a known bug/missing feature on Linux.  I'm pretty sure that 
Walter intends to implement this.

Of course, if one of us writes some good example code for him, then it 
would be much easier for him...

My experience on low level coding for linux is pretty limited. If someone
wants to donate the code for linux that will convert seg faults into
exceptions, like the Windows code does in internal\deh.c, I'd love to
incorporate it.
