For all your programs it is recommended to implement an identical unexpected handler, that rethrows, catches the @c mrw::exception, @c std::exception and all unknown exceptions, traces them and finally quits with a throw of a @c std::bad_exception. You are also required to write a @c try @c catch block around all in your @c main, so that you don't miss any exception. The only thing that may be different from project to project is, how tracing is done. The MRW C++ Class Library provides you with additional libraries you can link to. By linking to the library, you get an unexpected handler and an exception trace in the @c main for free: You don't need to add a single line of code, just link to one more library! The libraries differ in how tracing is done. The Implementation is done with a static instance of a class that sets the unexpected handler in the constructor. @section trcstderr Trace using std::cerr If you link to the library @c libmrwexcstderr using a linker option such as: @c -lmrwexcstderr, then an unexpected and a terminate handler are registered, that trace to the standard error stream @c std::cerr. Also for all know signals there's a signal handler to trace the stack before termination (except in case of a @c SIGTRAP, wehere the program is not terminated). You don't need to change a single line in your code! */ //@{ /** @brief unexpected handler, that traces to @c std::cerr The unexpected handler is installed automatically when you link to @c -lmrwexcstderr. The implementation of this unexpected handler is as follows: @code void unexpected_stderr() { std::cerr<<"UNEXPECTED EXCEPTION: ----------------------------"<
