Does GCC have anything similar to the MS and Borland compiler's __try
and __finally keywords? When using GCC I often find that I have code
like this (a moderately complex, and highly contrived, example):
====
void *data1 = NULL, *data2 = NULL, *data3 = NULL;
try {
if (!(data1 = malloc(1000)))
throw Something();
if (!(data2 = malloc(1000)))
throw Something();
if (!(data3 = malloc(1000)))
throw Something();
} catch (...) {
// cleanup code
free(data3);
free(data2);
free(data1);
throw;
}
// the same cleanup code
free(data3);
free(data2);
free(data1);
===
Where I am duplicating cleanup code for normal returns and exception
handling, but what I really want to do is something like this:
===
void *data1 = NULL, *data2 = NULL, *data3 = NULL;
__try {
if (!(data1 = malloc(1000)))
throw Something();
if (!(data2 = malloc(1000)))
throw Something();
if (!(data3 = malloc(1000)))
throw Something();
// do stuff
} __finally {
// cleanup code
free(data3);
free(data2);
free(data1);
}
===
Thanks,
Jason
