-DHB_INCLUDE_WINEXCHANDLER

[Enrico Maria Giordano]

From whatsnew.txt:

FWH users: We are building Harbour and xHarbour using the -DHB_INCLUDE_WINEXCHANDLER flag.
If you build Harbour or xHarbour yourself, please use such flag too.

Can you explain better what is that flag and what could happen without it?

Thank you.

Enrico,

That flag makes Harbour and xharbour to provide its own GPFs handler.

Up to now, FWH provided its own, but with the recent hb_stack changes, we can't any longer manage hb_stack from outside [x]Harbour.

If you use a Harbour or xHarbour build, built without such flag, if a GPF happens, then you will not get any information (calls stack) for it.

[Enrico Maria Giordano]

Perfectly clear.

Thank you.

Other than building [x]Harbour using that flag, do we need to add it in the link script of our applications too?

No. Just when building Harbour/xHarbour.

Ok, thank you.
