EXCEPTION_DEBUG_INFO (Compact 2013)

3/28/2014

This structure contains exception information that can be used by a debugger.

Syntax

typedef struct _EXCEPTION_DEBUG_INFO { 
  EXCEPTION_RECORD ExceptionRecord; 
  DWORD dwFirstChance; 
} EXCEPTION_DEBUG_INFO;

ExceptionRecord
Contains an EXCEPTION_RECORD structure with information specific to the exception. This includes the following:
- The exception code
- Flags
- The address
- A pointer to a related exception
- Extra parameters
- Additional information

dwFirstChance
Indicates whether the debugger has previously encountered the exception specified by the ExceptionRecord member.

If the dwFirstChance member is nonzero, this is the first time the debugger has encountered the exception.

Debuggers typically handle breakpoint and single-step exceptions when they are first encountered.

If this member is 0, the debugger has previously encountered the exception. This occurs only if, during the search for structured exception handlers, either no handler was found or the exception was continued.
