EXCEPTION_DEBUG_INFO

The EXCEPTION_DEBUG_INFO structure contains exception information that can be used by a debugger.

typedef struct _EXCEPTION_DEBUG_INFO { // exdi 
    EXCEPTION_RECORD ExceptionRecord; 
    DWORD dwFirstChance; 
} EXCEPTION_DEBUG_INFO; 
 

Members

ExceptionRecord

Contains an EXCEPTION_RECORD structure with information specific to the exception. This includes the exception code, flags, address, a pointer to a related exception, extra parameters, and so on.

dwFirstChance

Indicates whether the debugger has previously encountered the exception specified by the ExceptionRecord member. If the dwFirstChance member is nonzero, this is the first time the debugger has encountered the exception. Debuggers typically handle breakpoint and single-step exceptions when they are first encountered. If this member is zero, the debugger has previously encountered the exception. This occurs only if, during the search for structured exception handlers, either no handler was found or the exception was continued.
