Re: [boost] [Test] execution_exception not derivedfromstd::exception

Gennadiy,

while we are discussing exceptions in Boost::Test, I've got a small request:

Could you maybe provide an equivalent macro to BOOST_CHECKPOINT (or 
extend BOOST_CHECKPOINT) whose message is also displayed if 
BOOST_REQUIRE fails? The reason I ask is that I sometimes outsource 
common testing routines into helper functions and would like to print 
context information if the test fails (as the line number itself is not 
very informative in these instances). I'm sure that would be a help to 
others too.

Regards,
   Stephan
