How can I abstract out a repeating try catch pattern in C++

Question

I have a pattern that repeats for several member functions that looks like this:

int myClass::abstract_one(int sig1)
{
  try {
    return _original->abstr         


        

Answer 1

As a variant on Alexander Gessler's solution you can omit some of the braces that make this implementation a little long. It does exactly the same thing, just with a little less { } verbage.

void handle() try 
{ 
  throw;
}
  catch (std::exception& err) 
{
  handleException(err);
}
  catch (MyException& err)
{
  handleMyException(err);
}
  catch (...)
{
  handleException();
}



int myClass::abstract_one(int sig1) try 
{
  return _original->abstract_one(sig1);
}
  catch (...)
{
  handle();
  return -1;
}
