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

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?). Boris
