To be honest I don't know enough about the argument for/against to form an opinion. However this article did absolutely nothing to sway me. The article gives a couple of "reasons" as to why stack unwinding is hard, and seems to imply that they wouldn't be an issue with API level error reporting - but doesn't explain how or why or give any reasoning or practical examples.
- bsaul 12y agoHad absolutely no idea this issue of stack unwindling having a cost and being non portable even existed, so that article was really interesting to me.
- Benjamin_Dobell 12y agoFair enough. I was mostly just confused as to why this had many up-votes but no discussion around it. I guess there was a bit more content in the article than I realised, but I just happened to already be familiar with that part.
