App crashed even after catching signal by google_breakpad?

问题

Google breakpad catches signal (about crash in native code via JNI) but the app still dies after it. What should be done in order to prevent it?

log:

        char *ptr = 0;
        *ptr = '!'; // ERROR HERE!

    }

    debug("finished\n");
}

In some cases, there is no way of preventing your app from crashing, even if you use Breakpad or CoffeeCatch.

However, you will be notified before the crash occurs. You can use that time to warn the user about what is happening (a fatal error) and what will happen next (the app will force close).
