Re: [boost] [program_option, throw_exception] misterious borland failures

If I replace throw_exception with "throw", the tests fails later, and if I replace all throw_exception's with throw in the module, test passes.

So I have two questions:

1. Did anybody else had this problem with throw_exception 2. If throw_exception function does not work with borland, maybe it should become macro on that compiler?

throw_exception can't be a macro because it can be called with boost:: qualification.

But it's possible to introduce new macro, say BOOST_THROW.

In fact, try using boost::throw_exception in the code above; I remember hitting a similar code generation bug in Boost.Bind, take a look at the beginning of boost/bind.hpp.

Thanks for the hint! The problem is gone now. - Volodya
