[ITK-users] Floating point exception (core dumped) ConnectedComponentFilter

[Matt McCormick]

Hi,

ITK has support that helps debugging floating point exceptions.  Call
the static method itk::FloatingPointExceptions::Enable():

  http://www.itk.org/Doxygen/html/classitk_1_1FloatingPointExceptions.html#a404951e9dbb64d0a69a7eb1f63d8f1c1

If the floating point exception action is ABORT, a backtrace can be
obtained when running in a debugger like gdb.

HTH,
Matt

Generally the FPU can be configure to silently assign a predefined floating point value such as “nan”, or a signal can be generating terminating the program like in your case. The option can usually be configured with compilation flags, the run-time environment or the program itself.
