Do not use the abort function to shut down a Windows Store app, except in testing or debugging scenarios. Programmatic or UI ways to close a Windows Store app are not permitted according to Section 3.6 of the Windows 8 app certification requirements. For more information, see Application lifecycle (Windows Store apps). |
unsigned int _set_abort_behavior( unsigned int flags, unsigned int mask );
There are two abort flags: _WRITE_ABORT_MSG and _CALL_REPORTFAULT. _WRITE_ABORT_MSG determines whether a helpful text message is printed when a program is abnormally terminated. The message states that the application has requested the runtime to terminate it in an unusual way and suggests that the user contact the application support team for more information. The default behavior is to print the message. _CALL_REPORTFAULT, if set, specifies that a Watson crash dump is generated and reported when abort is called. By default, crash dump reporting is enabled in non-DEBUG builds.
