Catching all unhandled C++ exceptions?

Question

Is there some way to catch exceptions which are otherwise unhandled (including those thrown outside the catch block)?

I\'m not really concerned about all the normal

Answer 1

This can be used to catch unexpected exceptions.

catch (...)
{
    std::cout << "OMG! an unexpected exception has been caught" << std::endl;
}

Without a try catch block, I don't think you can catch exceptions, so structure your program so the exception thowing code is under the control of a try/catch.
