It turns out that this trick is explicitly permitted by the Standard (as it was pointed in this post: http://rsdn.ru/Forum/Message.aspx?mid=1420469&only=1).
For what it's worth, that trick is not very portable in practice, at least not to many of the older compilers that Boost.Bind is trying to support. I suggest that instead, you do something like this: void ExceptionFilter(boost::function0<> f) { try { f(); } catch(Exception1 const& e) { //Blah-blah 1 } catch(Exception2 const& e) { //Blah-blah 2 } catch(Exception3 const& e) { //Blah-blah 3 } catch(Exception4 const& e) { //Blah-blah 4 } catch(Exception5 const& e) { throw; //Just rethrow } catch(...) { //Something other } } -- Dave Abrahams Boost Consulting www.boost-consulting.com
