NAME

Exception::Cxx - Switch to ANSI C++ exceptions

SYNOPSIS

use Exception::Cxx;

DESCRIPTION

This module arranges for perl to use ANSI C++ exceptions (instead of setjmp/longjmp). The reason you might want this is for integration with 3rd party libraries that use C++ exceptions and cannot switch back to longjmp.

BUGS

sigsetjmp saves more state than catch {}. In C++, sigprocmask & priocntl are not saved or restored.

C++ exceptions will not work with the CC perl compiler backend. IMO, this is a bug in the backend.
