User exception handler in C (Developers)

posted by RayeR Homepage, CZ, 24.07.2020, 13:15

Hi, is it possible/how to install user exception handler in user program in DJGPP (DOS) and MinGW (Windows) to catch CPU exception before OS/program will crash? Does DJGPP have it's own hander or is it catched by DPMI server or other memory manager in v86 mode like JEMM? Is it possible to resume from exception and continue normally? Eg. in case of RDMSR of nonexisting MSR exception is generated and it leads to crash or BSOD in Windows. There was some discussion about CPU-Z in Win9x that from VXD the exception cannot be catched and Windows will BSOD...
