Good luck getting a fully C++14 compatible compiler with exceptions working on all UNIXes.
- pjmlp 9y agoSo far I haven't had any relevant problem regarding C++ exceptions regardless of the language level. Besides, signals are OS specific, while C++ exceptions are compiler specific.
- jcelerier 9y ago> all UNIXes. what do you put in "all UNIXes" ? Xenix 1.0 ? MULTICS? Because all current unices (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/7/77/Unix_history-simple.svg https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/7/77/Unix_his...) would have no problem running recent GCC and C++ exceptions. I mean, for hell's sake, C++ exceptions date back to 1990. Nowadays you can throw exceptions on damn 16-bit microcontrollers (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TI_MSP430 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TI_MSP430) ; I doubt there's a relevant, non legacy unix where this does not work.
