About Structured Exception Handling
The structured exception handling and termination handling mechanisms are integral parts of the system; they enable the system to be robust. You can use these mechanisms to create consistently robust and reliable applications.
Structured exception handling is made available primarily through compiler support. For example, the Microsoft C/C++ Optimizing Compiler supports the __try keyword that identifies a guarded body of code, the __except keyword that identifies an exception handler, and the __finally keyword that identifies a termination handler. Although this overview uses examples specific to the Microsoft C/C++ compiler, other compilers provide this support as well.
