Title
Body
How do you get the name and/or description of an SEH exception without having to hard-code the strings into your application? I tried to use FormatMessage() , but it truncates the message sometimes, even if you specify to ignore inserts: __asm { // raise access violation xor eax, eax mov eax, [eax] } Raises an exception with the code 0xC0000005 (EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION) . char msg[256]; FormatMessageA(FORMAT_MESSAGE_FROM_HMODULE | FORMAT_MESSAGE_IGNORE_INSERTS, GetModuleHandleA("ntdll.dll"), 0xC0000005, MAKELANGID(LANG_NEUTRAL, SUBLANG_DEFAULT), msg, sizeof(msg), NULL); Fills msg with the truncated string: " The instruction at 0x ".
