Thinking in C++ Vol 2 - Practical Programming

Summary

Error recovery is a fundamental concern for every program you write. It s especially important in C++ when creating program components for others to use. To create a robust system, each component must be robust.

The goals for exception handling in C++ are to simplify the creation of large, reliable programs using less code than currently possible, with more confidence that your application doesn t have an unhandled error. This is accomplished with little or no performance penalty and with low impact on existing code.

Basic exceptions are not terribly difficult to learn; begin using them in your programs as soon as you can. Exceptions are one of those features that provide immediate and significant benefits to your project.
