There has been a long running problem with spectra stopping updating after a certain amount of time issue 2750 this has not been reproducible on developer test machines, the only clue came recently when the related detector diagnostics display stopped and reported a message that looked a bit like thread termination. The proposed solution has been to add additional exception handling on the assumption that a windows structured exception rather than a C++ std::exception is the cause. To handle these non-C++ exceptions, the following has been done:
- Compiling with
/EHa
which allows catch(...) to handle Structured Exceptions - Registering a structured exception handler to convert Structured Exceptions into C++ exceptions
In theory (2) is all that is needed, but the handler needs to be installed on a per thread basis so just to be extra safe (1) has been implemented too
