cant remember if c++ has that, might ahve been a java invention

and "finally" -- finally is the flow-control equivalent of the destructor

mirrorbird (19:14:04)
surely error handling is a flow control problem. even old basic with ON ERROR GOTO knew this

mirrorbird (19:13:52)
but generally like the idea, better than "oh let's check a flag after every call to anything"

i love exceptions, i think they are sometimes abused (even at framework level, it's dumb that .NET throws an exception if the web client gets a 404!!!! that's not an emergency condition)

i like C with classes

Stinsen (19:12:54)
tbh i'm still a stone age C/C+ programmer.. i hate exceptions and I hate most of any of the new concepts in C++ ;D

mirrorbird (19:12:38)
(err i might be talkin about c++ now haha)

mirrorbird (19:12:30)
that seems like such a massive breaking thing to do, more painful than just adding a new keyword?? but apparently it was ok?

i was amazed they officially changed the meaning of "auto" btw
