Hi,

We were  thinking of handling  exceptions using the C++  standards.  I
checked out:

http://www.mozilla.org/hacking/portable-cpp.html

to make sure wether these were portable. Here's the answer they give:


3.Don't use exceptions.

Exceptions  are   another  C++  feature  which  is   not  very  widely
implemented, and  as such, their use  is not portable  C++ code. Don't
use  them. Unfortunately, there  is no  good workaround  that produces
similar functionality.

One exception  to this rule (don't  say it) is that  it's probably ok,
and  may be  necessary  to  use exceptions  in  some machine  specific
code. If you do use exceptions in machine specific code you must catch
all exceptions there  because you can't throw the  exception across XP
(cross platform) code.


Too bad... 

:-(



Marcel.
