Abstract
A fault or an exception is injected into a target thread. Instructions are processed and a target thread is recognized. As a result, an asynchronous procedure call is queued. The asynchronous procedure call is run on the target thread and the context of the target thread is modified. The target thread is executed in the modified context and an exception is raised in the target thread as a result of the modified context. The exception is handled and processing of the instruction continues.
