Summary
SUMMARY: None
Purpose of change
When an exception is thrown but unhandled, the program's state might not allow for correct execution of the normal exiting procedures (such as deconstructing static variables). If a new signal is raised during the exit procedure, it may overwrite the crash log with useless data (or fry the crash handling code outright).
Describe the solution
Use
abortinstead ofstd::exit.Testing
Tested by throwing an exception from the game and it was correctly handled.
