<AWT Dev> RFR: [12] JDK-8196681: Java Access Bridge logging and debug flags dynamically controlled

[Krishna Addepalli]

Since I added string.h and its related code for manipulating the path, I encountered this warning. The standard way to deal with this is to specify /EHsc, which is to enable catching of asynchronous exceptions.

Thanks,
Krishna

But what new code required this option? As far as I understand part of this option is to "tells the compiler to assume that functions declared as extern "C" never throw a C++ exception."
I am not sure that this is correct assumption, is it?
