Abstract : A discussion of exception handling in C++ and the
difficulties involved in using them properly and the
associated costs involved.
Cargill illustrates his points through a code example
which he modifies and reviews. He finishes by
stating that he is not confident that he understands
all the interactions involved well enough to write
the correct code.
