I'd replace this with:

try
{
        m_pProtoBufStream.reset();
}
catch ( ... )
{
         cout << endl << "Unexpected exception caught in " <<
BOOST_CURRENT_FUNCTION << endl <<
boost::current_exception_diagnostic_information();
}

(you'd need to #include <boost/exception/diagnostic_information.hpp>)
