Re: [Boost-users] Exception handling inside a dll

Java can't catch native code exceptions. The exception has to be caught in the C++ code but so far traditional exception handling isn't working. I even tried put a try/catch block around the entire function and it still crashes. On Sat, Oct 4, 2008 at 6:08 AM, Boris wrote:

Hello,

I'm writing a JNI dll that can be called from a Java GUI. The java program passes a regex and a string to search. The dll function does a boost::regex_search and returns an IntArray with the results. The problem that I'm having is that bad expressions result in a crash. For instance, if the user inputs \b as the regex and 'bad' as the string, the program crashes.

You must catch the exception in your C++ code and convert it to a Java exception yourself (I assume you want your Java code to catch the exception?).
