I don't think exceptions are "implemented in C++" yet. gnu g++ does not
support them. In Borland C++ 5.02 for Windows 95, if you throw an
exception from a constructor, the stack (or something) is corrupted, and
you eventually crash the machine. My impression is that other
implementations also have problems with C++ exceptions (I have not used
any other implementations).
Does anyone use a C++ implementation that actually supports all the
semantics of the draft C++ standard exceptions?
