Re: [Boost-users] Re: Guidelines for effective exception usage

My two cents of the referenced html page. Not placing attributes like string into an exception class only makes sense if the exception being thrown has something to do with a memory starvation situation. For a lot of exception types that I can think of this is not the case. As an example of this std::runtime_error often has a string attribute and this is perfectly fine. Jonathan Turkanis wrote:

Are there any guidelines on where and when to use exceptions?
