C++ whining

2007-05-10 03:36:58.931841+02 by Dan Lyke 0 comments

I was whining about the silliness of Boost's compilation system, but it turns out I can't use it 'cause the platform doesn't yet support C++ exceptions. Which means no automatic memory management. Not a huge deal, but I'd had my hopes up.

And wow, do auto_ptrs have some really interesting failure modes or what?
