Hi,
I use boost coroutines and I have realized that in my environment (Visual Studio 2015 Update 1, x64) I cannot catch the exception type of a custom exception.
The example below demonstrates the case. I have a custom exception derived from a std::runime_error. In the main function I want to catch my custom exception type that was thrown in the coroutine. However somehow I always end up in the catch branch of the std::runtime_error.
Are custom exceptions are not supported by the coroutines library?
boost::exception_ptr requires that the exception is thrown using enable_current_exception, see www.boost.org/doc/libs/release/libs/exception/doc/enable_current_exception.html. I recommend to throw the exception using BOOST_THROW_EXCEPTION, which internally uses enable_current_exception. Emil
