Re: [boost] [test] I want my core dumped

I have assert in my library code, but when the assert fire in a test, the main function in minimal.hpp intercept the signal and explains that, yes, you asked for an abort, but no:

[...] ../../../boost/test/minimal.hpp(136): exception "signal: SIGABRT (application abort requested)" caught in function: 'int main(int, char **)'

Is there a way to avoid that behavior ? I need that core file.

Can't you just run it in the debugger and have it first-chance-catch any signals? Or breakpoint on abort?
