Hi,
I was wondering how Boost.Exception works on compilers supporting 18.8.5 Exception propagation. Can an exception thrown by a 3pp library by retrieved by boost::current_exception() by another library or application code?
No, it remains to be implemented. There is also "experimental" non-intrusive implementation for some MSVC compilers too (thanks to Anthony) which is off by default.
BTW, what is the degree of compliance of Boost.Exception respect to 18.8.5 Exception propagation and 18.8.6 nested_exception sections of the standard? Do you have a plan towards been C++11 compliant?
I haven't implemented nested_exception and I'm not planning to, but the exception_ptr stuff should be compliant. Emil Dotchevski Reverge Studios, Inc. http://www.revergestudios.com/reblog/index.php?n=ReCode
