   1 =========================================
   2 C++ exceptions for long control transfers
   3 =========================================
   4
   5 Normally Duktape uses ``setjmp()`` / ``longjmp()`` or their variants for
   6 internal long control transfers.  One downside of these functions is that
   7 C++ automatic destructors (scope-based resource management, SBRM, a special
   8 case of RAII) in Duktape/C functions won't be executed which is awkward for
   9 C++ programmers.
  10
  11 When ``DUK_USE_CPP_EXCEPTIONS`` (``DUK_OPT_CPP_EXCEPTIONS``) is defined, and
  12 both Duktape and application code is compiled using a C++ compiler, Duktape
  13 uses C++ ``try-catch`` and ``throw`` for internal long control transfers.
  14 This allows automatic destructors to run as expected.  The config option is
  15 not enabled by default because C++ exceptions are sometimes disabled even
  16 when a C++ compiler is used (e.g. for performance reasons).
  17
  18 The ``cpp_exceptions.cpp`` example illustrates how C++ exceptions can be
  19 used in Duktape/C functions at the moment:
  20
  21 * Duktape uses C++ try/catch/throw internally; this is not visible to user
  22   code directly.
  23
  24 * Automatic destructors (scope-based resource management) work as expected.
  25
  26 * C++ exceptions can be used in Duktape/C functions normally, but user
  27   exceptions must be caught before they reach Duktape.  If this is not
  28   done, such exceptions are caught by Duktape and converted to API errors
  29   (in other words, they won't propagate "through" Duktape at the moment).
