  • Copy Elision in Exception Handling
    Document Number: J16/04-0165 = WG21 N1725 Date: 2004-11-08 Reply to: William M. Miller Edison Design Group, Inc. [email protected] Copy Elision in Exception Handling I. The Problem Clause 15 has two passages dealing with copy elision in exception handling. 15.1¶5 says, If the use of the temporary object can be eliminated without changing the meaning of the program except for the execution of constructors and destructors associated with the use of the temporary object (12.2), then the exception in the handler can be initialized directly with the argument of the throw expression. When the thrown object is a class object, and the copy constructor used to initialize the temporary copy is not accessible, the program is ill-formed (even when the temporary object could otherwise be eliminated). Similarly, if the destructor for that object is not accessible, the program is ill-formed (even when the temporary object could otherwise be eliminated). In a sometimes overlapping, sometimes differing passage, 15.3¶17 says, If the use of a temporary object can be eliminated without changing the meaning of the program except for execution of constructors and destructors associated with the use of the temporary object, then the optional name can be bound directly to the temporary object specified in a throw-expression causing the handler to be executed. The copy constructor and destructor associated with the object shall be accessible even when the temporary object is eliminated. Part of the difference is terminological. For instance, 15.1¶5 refers to “the exception in the handler,” while the “optional name” in 15.3¶17 is a reference to the exception-declaration that is part of a handler (15¶1).

  • Better Tools in Your Clang Toolbox
    Better Tools in Your Clang Toolbox September, 2018 Victor Ciura Technical Lead, Advanced Installer www.advancedinstaller.com Abstract Clang-tidy is the go to assistant for most C++ programmers looking to improve their code. If you set out to modernize your aging code base and find hidden bugs along the way, clang-tidy is your friend. Last year, we brought all the clang-tidy magic to Visual Studio C++ developers with a Visual Studio extension called “Clang Power Tools”. After successful usage within our team, we decided to open-source the project and make Clang Power Tools available for free in the Visual Studio Marketplace. This helped tens of thousands of developers leverage its powers to improve their projects, regardless of their compiler of choice for building their applications. Clang-tidy comes packed with over 250 built-in checks for best practice, potential risks and static analysis. Most of them are extremely valuable in real world code, but we found several cases where we needed to run specific checks for our project. This talk will share some of the things we learned while developing these tools and using them at scale on our projects and within the codebases of our community users. http://clangpowertools.com https://github.com/Caphyon/clang-power-tools 2018 Victor Ciura | @ciura_victor !X Who Am I ?
