Should the C++ try-throw-catch mechanism work under DJGPP?
Has anyone got it to work?
Yes? Any chance of a snippet of source code?

It's not documented in the gcc info, but gcc itself recognises
the keywords and suggests compiling with the -fhandle-exceptions
switch. I tried this, but the resulting program resolutely
refuses to catch what I throw; it just calls terminate()
every time.

Thanks for any assistance,
