Hi, I hope somebody can help with the following issue:
I have a Fortran program compiled and statically linked by ifort, and one of the libraries it links to has C++ code. (The interface to the C++ code is composed of extern "C" functions.) During normal operation, the C++ code uses C++'s throw/catch exception handling mechanism. The problem is that when the code is called by this Fortran program, the process aborts when an exception is thrown.
The C++ library was compiled with gcc 3.2.2 in RedHat 9.
In essence, Fortran code calls an extern "C" function. The extern "C" function calls a C++ function which throws (and should catch) an exception. But when the exception is thrown, the process aborts.
The stack dump is
Program received signal SIGABRT, Aborted.
0x0812b9e1 in kill ()
(gdb) where
#0 0x0812b9e1 in kill ()
#1 0x0811517a in __pthread_raise ()
#2 0x0812bd29 in abort ()
#3 0x080b4197 in __cxxabiv1::__terminate(void (*)()) ()
#4 0x080b41e4 in std::terminate() ()

#6 0x0807c124 in CLUDPImpl::select2(int, CL_Addrs&, CL_Addrs&, timeval*, bool,

Thanks.
