Subject: Re: [Boost-users] State of context and coroutine
From: Michael Steinberg (michsteinb_at_[hidden])

One remaining question/uncertainty:

The documentation specifically states not to leak exceptions into the
"stack base" or leaving entry function. On the other hand, stack
unwinding works by throwing an exception
(boost::context::detail::forced_unwind) ontop of the coroutine. That is
a) not documented and b) the exception is defined in the detail
namespace. That means, one has to use a detail-member to rethrow the one
exception that has to leave the coroutine client entry function. I would
argue to put the exception definition into the context namespace.
