[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #49779] print /non/existing/dir/file.svg crashes octave

[Rik]

Update of bug #49779 (project octave):

                  Status:                    None => Confirmed

Follow-up Comment #2:

Confirmed. This bug has been reported in other guises.  The issue is that the
GUI has multiple threads with one for Qt plotting and one for Octave
processing.  When using C++ exceptions in the Qt thread the system libraries
are not channeling the exception to the handler that the Octave main thread
has installed.  Instead, no handler is registered so the default terminate
function is called which stops the program.

This is a nasty but of cross-thread programming that I don't know how to
resolve just yet.
