most good books on C++ that i have read which tackle this issue
recommend avoiding throwing out of constructors anyway. i think meyers
and others recommend constructing an object as minimally as possible and
then explicitly "initializing" it. this is in part precisely to deal
with the kind of ambiguity that you are encountering. thus, if you have
class MyFancyWidget : public class Gtk::SomeWidget {.... }
you construct such a thing like this:
MyFancyWidget* w = manage (new MyFancyWidget()); // does almost
nothing
try {
w->init (some, args, it, might, need);
}
catch (....
since this allows you to handle exceptions cleanly and clearly.
