<p>I'm using Visual C++ 2003 to debug a program remotely via TCP/IP.</p>

<p>I had set the Win32 exception c00000005, "Access violation," to break into the debugger when thrown. Then, I set it back to "Use parent setting." The setting for the parent, Win32 Exceptions, is to continue when the exception is thrown.</p>

<p>Now, when I debug the program, it breaks each time that exception is thrown, forcing me to click Continue to let it keep debugging. How do I get it to stop breaking like this?</p>

It\'s not something I\'d expect the underlying C/++ Runtime to be throwing and catching internally.</p>\n\n<p>The \'first-chance-exceptions\' feature is so you can intercept things which get \'caught\' in code, using the debugger, and have a look. If there\'s nothing \'catching\' that exception (which makes sense, why on earth would you catch and ignore access violations?), then it will trigger the debugger regardless of what options you may have set.</p>\n'}]
