Programming

Hi everyone,

I am using AIX 6.1. There are exception codes defined in header file

Code:

sys/m_except.h

Also, in the documentation (in "Understanding exception handling") it says:

Code:

If no exception handler is currently defined when an exception occurs, typically one of two things happens.
 
 If the exception occurs while a process is executing in user mode, the process is sent a signal relevant to the type of exception.
 If the exception occurs while in kernel mode, the system halts.

I was wondering, if there exists some sort of mapping of exception codes to signals being sent to the process (like EXCEPT_FLOAT to SIGFPE)? I couldnt find any documentation on this one.

Thanks in advance!

I guess that is more general programming question at first - moving it to the programming area for better chances.
