"Related fdo#51252: Report uncaught exceptions with MessageBox on
Windows" is an attempt to get more useful information when a user is hit
by <https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=51252> "LO cannot start
(reports runtime error with Visual C++ Runtime Library)" etc. on
Windows. It displays a native message box containing the message of the
uncaught UNO exception.
One easy way to test the effectiveness of this patch is to duplicate a
LO installation's program\services\services.rdb as
program\services\DUPLICATE.rdb. Starting soffice.exe should then cause
this fatal error (due to duplicate UNO service implementations).
Please review for libreoffice-3-6 and libreoffice-3-6-0. The patch
should be really harmless, as it should only kick in in situations where
LibreOffice is failing completely anyway.
Thanks,
Stephan
