There's no such thing as "null pointer exception" in C++. The only exceptions you can catch, is the exceptions explicitly thrown by throw expressions (plus, as Pavel noted, some standard C++ exceptions thrown intrinsically by standard operator new, dynamic_cast etc). There are no other exceptions in C++. Dereferencing null pointers, division by zero etc. does not generate exceptions in C++, it produces undefined behavior. If you want exceptions thrown in cases like that it is your own responsibility to manually detect these conditions and do throw explicitly. That's how it works in C++.
Whatever else you seem to be looking for has noting to do with C++ language, but rather a feature of particular implementation. In Visual C++, for example, system/hardware exceptions can be "converted" into C++ exceptions, but there's a price attached to this non-standard functionality, which is not normally worth paying.
