A POSIX sub-group is looking at C++ bindings for POSIX.
They are talking about a filesystem library binding at least loosely based on Boost.System, Boost.Filesystem, and C++ TR2.
In looking at http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/papers/2009/n2838.html , "Library Support for Hybrid Error Handling (Rev 2)", they are concerned about specifying hybrid error handling like this:
What is the sense of a C++ interface, which does not throw on error? I think meanwhile (this is 2009) we should be over the "I hate C++ Exception Handling" thinking.
Well said. Thank you. -- Marshall
