[MUC++] Inbal Levi - "Exceptions Under the Spotlight" (Virtual)
Channel: MUCplusplus
Date: 2020-09-19

The exception mechanism is a complex topic and has been enthusiastically discussed in the last WG21 committee meeting. In this talk we will dive into the world of exceptions.

We will start with an exploration of the evolution of exceptions, and the design decisions that lead to the current version. Next, we will explore the usage as part of the program, and analyze the overhead by breaking the exceptions mechanism to bits. Last, we will describe alternatives aiming to minimize the overhead.
