Since C++ never talked about threads, MS was quite free to specify[1]: set_terminate (CRT) ------------------- (Visual Studio 2010 ) Installs your own termination routine to be called by terminate. ... In a multithreaded environment, terminate functions are maintained separately for each thread. Each new thread needs to install its own terminate function. Thus, each thread is in charge of its own termination handling. Now, looking at the latest std draft (N3242): 18.8.3.1 Type terminate_handler 2 Required behavior: A terminate_handler shall terminate execution of the program without returning to the caller. Does anyone have any idea whether the wording for the terminate_handler might be too strict now that we have threads in the std? cheers, Martin -- [ comp.std.c++ is moderated.
