This seems to trigger another exception that gets trapped by the handler, leading to a new crash, that calls the handler again etc. Fix: When the cygnus exception handler starts, it should reset the exception handler to its default value... This would avoid infinite loops like the one you describe. -- Jacob Navia Logiciels/Informatique 41 rue Maurice Ravel Tel 01 48.23.51.44 93430 Villetaneuse Fax 01 48.23.95.39 France - For help on using this list, send a message to "gnu-win32-request@cygnus.com" with one line of text: "help".
