Because no one used it. Sounds like I may need to un-deprecate it for 2.060.
Yes, please. There are now several people that want to use it. But does the
compiler handles this correctly? I think you previously mentioned something
about this.
DMD requires that you throw from the assert handler (at least when you compile
with the -release flag or similar). That limitation is the other reason I
deprecated the assert handler, but I imagine there are plenty of uses for it
that exit with a throw.
Can I throw anything? A catchable exception ?
Yes. The issue is simply that DMD doesn't generate a call stack compatible with
returning via any means but throwing. But you can throw anything you want.
Ok, that would be sufficient for my needs.
