2) I would like to thank Dave and Robert for complaining about the added weight to boost/throw_exception.hpp. I managed to reduce that cost to less than 400 lines total, all contained in boost/exception/exception.hpp which now does not #include anything (not even standard headers.) If there are more concerns about this issue, let's discuss them now.
I don't know if this will be enough. For me the semantics has ben changed, Robert has already created its own serialization::throw_ewception which is a copy of the old boost::throw_exception, who will be the next? IMO, we need to provide the old boost::throw_exception publically on boost, even if we change its name, before each library developer and user define its own throw_ewception. Can you provide some performance results comparing the old and the new implementations? Regards, Vicente
