as Miklos wrote: Let your Constructor throw an exception. For a little detail on that, refer to http://www.parashift.com/c++-faq-lite/ctors-can-throw.html . You can surround your block construction with a try{}catch-clause, and handle your error, so your application may deal with that gracefully (instead of just dying). Another common method of dealing with stuff like this is, if you really have complex constructor arguments and might need to check if they make sense in multiple places - - let your class have a static method validate_arguments(...) that returns true or false, - - let your c'tor call that and throw an exception when it's false, and - - use that unbound method (that is calling activecats_class::validate_arguments() rather than calling instance_of_that_class.validate_arguments()) from wherever you want to calculate arguments.
