Defined in header <cstdlib>
[[noreturn]] void quick_exit( int exit_code ) noexcept;
(since C++11)

Causes normal program termination to occur without completely cleaning the resources.

Functions passed to std::at_quick_exit are called in reverse order of their registration. If an exception tries to propagate out of any of the functions, std::terminate is called. After calling the registered functions, calls std::_Exit(exit_code).

Functions passed to std::atexit are not called.

Parameters

exit_code - exit status of the program

Example

#include <cstdlib>
#include <iostream>

template<int N>
void quick_exit_handler()
{
    std::cout << "quick_exit handler #" << N << std::endl; // flush is intended
}

void at_exit_handler()
{
    std::cout << "at_exit handler\n";
}

int main()
{
    if (std::at_quick_exit(quick_exit_handler<1>) ||
        std::at_quick_exit(quick_exit_handler<2>))
    {
        std::cerr << "Registration failed\n";
        return EXIT_FAILURE;
    }

    std::atexit(at_exit_handler); // the handler will not be called

    struct R { ~R() { std::cout << "destructor\n"; } } resource;

    /*...*/

    std::quick_exit(EXIT_SUCCESS);

    std::cout << "This statement is unreachable...\n";
}

Output:

quick_exit handler #2
quick_exit handler #1
