Title: How to make Code::Blocks use DW2 exception handling?
Post by: Mowgli on October 03, 2013, 08:38:59 pm
I am new to Code::Blocks, and I need to use it with OpenCV on a Windows XP SP3 computer. I have faced the following problem:

when I try to run any application that includes OpenCV, I immediately get the following error message:


Cannot find entry point of procedure __gxx_personality_v0 in dynamically linked library libstdc++-6.dll


As people say here: http://answers.opencv.org/question/3740/opencv-243-mingw-cannot-run-program/ -- this problem is probably caused by Code::Blocks using SJLJ exception handling method, while OpenCV supports only DW2. I can see that in the /bin/ folder of Code::Blocks, the *.dll files for both DW2 and SJLJ are present. How can I force Code::Blocks to use DW2 instead?

Thank you in advance.

What types of exceptions your program uses depends only on the compiler, Code::Blocks has nothing to do with it.

The TDM compiler suite has a DW2 variant which works reliably, to name one example. Though of course you could just rebuild OpenCV using your compiler instead, too.

@Mowgli,

I'm elaborating Thomas' message. You can either
1) Download(http://sourceforge.net/projects/tdm-gcc/files/TDM-GCC%204.7%20series/4.7.1-tdm-1%20DW2/ (http://sourceforge.net/projects/tdm-gcc/files/TDM-GCC%204.7%20series/4.7.1-tdm-1%20DW2/)), install and use TDM compiler dw2 version, or
2) Recompile OpenCV with compiler that ships with Code::Blocks 12.11.
