Jump Functions

R. Lu — Tue, 27 Apr 2010 17:58:55 GMT

A developer in our group is trying to use some of the system functions like longjmp, siglongjmp, setjmp, sigsetjmp, or sigprocmask on OpenVMS.

The documents says they're supported. But as we're testing them, we can't make them work. Does anyone know what else we should do?

Thanks.

It works for the rest of us.

- Platform / version ?

- C / CRTL versions ?

Small example reduced to bare-bones?

Welcome to ITRC.

Please consider posting the OpenVMS and compiler version information here (CC /VERSION or CXX /VERSION, usually), post some failing C or C++ source code, the compiler and link commands, and post the error messages? Some details on what's going wrong? In what OpenVMS and compiler environment?

There are some brief examples of calls embedded in here:

There are some suggestions around constructing questions here:
