[jira] [Created] (ARROW-11585) [C++][CI] Windows SEH exceptions don't show a call stack

Ben Kietzman created ARROW-11585:
------------------------------------

             Summary: [C++][CI] Windows SEH exceptions don't show a call stack
                 Key: ARROW-11585
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-11585
             Project: Apache Arrow
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: C++, Continuous Integration
    Affects Versions: 3.0.0
            Reporter: Ben Kietzman


SEH exceptions are raised by Windows when (for example) a SIGSEGV would be emitted by Linux. When encountered in CI they are [very opaque|https://ci.appveyor.com/project/ApacheSoftwareFoundation/arrow/builds/37706635/job/k5q1oid2tuh5tuuv#L1695]:
{code}
[ RUN      ] Expression.FoldConstants
unknown file: error: SEH exception with code 0xc0000005 thrown in the test body.
[  FAILED  ] Expression.FoldConstants (1 ms)
{code}

It should be possible to show a stack trace for the exception, which would aid in debugging
