un-catched segfault exception

[philippe quesnel]

I have a bug that causes a segmentation fault (null object)...
but try/catch fails to catch it !! ??

even with
 catch (Exception e)
   ...
 catch (Error e)
   ...
 catch // "last catch"
   ...

I still cant catch the exception & the app crashes.

I'm on Windows (XP), with
gdc.exe (GCC) 3.4.5 (mingw special) (gdc 0.24, using dmd 1.020).

I must be missing some important point here .. this cant be the normal behaviour !!??

any help / suggestions would be appreciated.
thank you
Philippe
