I have the following code. After executing, a message terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::out_of_range' will appear. But in debug mode, this exception will not be caught.
My expectation result is that debug mode can stop on the corresponding line on s.substr(2,33);

Code
#include<cstdio>
#include<cstring>
#include<algorithm>
#include<string>
#include<vector>
#include<iostream>
#include<cmath>
typedef long long ll;
using namespace std;

int main() {
string s = "2" ;
s.substr(2,33);
    return 0;
}

Settings -> Debugger -> Your config -> Catch C++ exceptions
(most of the time I ignore long posts)

It doesn't work for me. Here is my environment:

Code
Name             : Code::Blocks
Version          : 20.03-r11983
SDK Version      : 2.0.0
Scintilla Version: 3.7.5
Author           : The Code::Blocks Team
E-mail           : info@codeblocks.org
Website          : http://www.codeblocks.org

wxWidgets Library (wxMSW port)
Version 3.1.3 (Unicode: wchar_t, debug level: 1),
compiled at Nov  1 2019 18:53:26

Runtime version of toolkit used is 10.0.

wx3.1.3 - gcc 8.1.0 (Windows,unicode)

Does any additional information can help?

Yes, enable full debugger log and post a session.

Yes, enable full debugger log and post a session.
To do this:
Settings->Debugger->Common->Full debug log
Start debugger
post the content of the "Debugger" tab from the log view at the bottom

Sadly the debugger (gdb) shipped with the latest codeblocks has some strange bugs and crashes from time to time. You sadly hit one of this bugs and your gdb is crashing....

So you have to update gdb to a newer version...
An easy way to do it:
Download the compiler from http://www.winlibs.com/ (for example https://github.com/brechtsanders/winlibs_mingw/releases/download/10.3.0-11.1.0-8.0.0-r2/winlibs-x86_64-posix-seh-gcc-10.3.0-mingw-w64-8.0.0-r2.zip )

extract it and replace the gdb.exe on your system with the gdb.exe from this archive.

Sadly this gdb is not python enabled... I have not found any newer gdb for windows with enabled python...

And the one distributed in Msys2, does-it has enabled python ?
Windows 11 64 bits (23H2), svn C::B (last version or almost!), wxWidgets 3.2.4 (tests with 3.3), Msys2 Compilers 13.2.0, 64 bits (seh, posix : gcc, g++ and gfortran in C:\msys64\mingw64) or 32 bits (dwarf2, posix  in C:\msys64\mingw32).

Thank you! It really works!
