Exceptions are defined by different layers of a computer system, and the typical layers are CPU-defined interrupts, operating system (OS)-defined signals, programming language-defined exceptions. Each layer requires different ways of exception handling although they may be interrelated, e.g. a CPU interrupt could be turned into an OS signal.
The implementation of exception handling in programming languages typically involves a fair amount of support from both a code generator and the runtime system accompanying a compiler. (It was the addition of exception handling to C++ that ended the useful lifetime of the original C++ compiler, Cfront. [18]) Two schemes are most common.
C does not provide direct support to exception handling: it is the programmer's responsibility to prevent errors in the first place and test return values from the functions.
SEH on 64-bit Windows does not involve a runtime exception handler list; instead, it uses a stack unwinding table (UNWIND_INFO) interpreted by the system when an exception occurs. [4] [5] This means that the compiler does not have to generate extra code to manually perform stack unwinding and to call exception handlers appropriately. It merely ...
The C++ standard library provides several levels of exception safety (in decreasing order of safety): [8] No-throw guarantee, also known as failure transparency: Operations are guaranteed to succeed and satisfy all requirements even in exceptional situations. If an exception occurs, it will be handled internally and not observed by clients.
In this C# example, all exceptions are caught regardless of type, and a new generic exception is thrown, keeping only the message of the original exception. The original stacktrace is lost, along with the type of the original exception, any exception for which the original exception was a wrapper, and any other information captured in the ...
Processor exceptions generated by the CPU have fixed mapping to the first up to 32 interrupt vectors. [1] While 32 vectors (0x00-0x1f) are officially reserved (and many of them are used in newer processors), the original 8086 used only the first five (0-4) interrupt vectors and the IBM PC IDT layout did not respect the reserved range.
