Prevent windows from presenting any dialog on native code unhandled exception

Our buildserver compiles and runs testsuites for many different c++ programs. From time to time the programs are buggy, and can crash.

When they crash, Windows7 will always throw this modal dialog:

Which has to be clicked away by a human being, causing the buildserver to sit idle.

Is there a way to at a system level prevent this from happening? I kno开发者_JS百科w I can do it from within the process itself, but I'd love to be able to do it across the entire system.

Calling WerAddExcludedApplication should do the trick.

You might try these lines at the start of your main.cpp:

_CrtSetReportMode(_CRT_ERROR, _CRTDBG_MODE_FILE);
_CrtSetReportFile(_CRT_ERROR, _CRTDBG_FILE_STDERR);

Read more about these APIs here: _CrtSetReportMode and _CrtSetReportFile.

Good luck!
