if that is not the reason, I would run it in the debugger and enable the debugger to stop whenever an exception is thrown or a signal is raised.

That's exactly what I have done, but the problem is that the thread disapears without any notice, that means also if all exceptions are activated.

Ok, my suggestion would be: Create a dummy class with destructor and initialize it as a thread-local storage. Hopefully, the destructor is going to be called when the thread is terminated. Now either make some logging (from the dtor) or put a break-point into the destructor and see what is the context when the storage is destroyed.

hard to do when dealing with MT-contexts.

That's what I have written, it happen only in the whole context and is not reproducible in a smaler set.

Additionally, I would try to use another compiler, e.g. VC 10. It is possible that there is a compiler bug, but more likely you might run in the threading error in a different way, which will give you more hints where the error might come from. Regards, Ovanes
