I suppose you mean the VC++ compiler since there's no such thing
as Windwos C++ platform - I can happily program for Windows in
C++ using GCC for example as my compiler...

Question 1 makes no sense.

For question 2 - you are basically right, though it makes no difference
what caused the process to exit - exception or not. It's mostly academic
by now, but kernel handles were not released in Win 9x.

And a comment on my own. I hope you finish your C++ education
soon, because you are singlehandedly responsible for at least 50% of
the traffic in this group...

Hello everyone,

Just want to check whether my understanding is correct,

Both (1) and (2) only covers Windows C++ platform.

1. If there is uncaught exception, destructor is not ensured to be called
for active object;

2. All the resources (handles, memory, etc.) for current process will be
released when uncaught exception causing process to terminate.

thanks in advance,
George
