Hi All,
Is there any way to keep program alive, when an AV takes place?
It's possible on Windows in D, but that's because Windows reports
segfaults with the same mechanism that D uses for exceptions. Since
Linux (and many other Posix systems) uses signals, it's probably very
tricky to implement in a cross-platform manner.
you can have a posix signal handler throw an exception (I have done it
and had it work) but I have no idea if it is supported.
In my experience, that works exactly once.
So you can use the signal handler to print a stack trace and maybe some
context, but throwing an exception that you then catch is dangerous.
