Hi Rob,

Yes, that will probably work.  I have to admit that I haven't touched C++
in a long time, so I might be more incompetent about it than I realize.


But yes, in theory, using exceptions instead of GOTOs should work.  In
fact, when the C++ Special Interest Group stated, that was Point Six of
its agenda:

*grin*


If you're interested in C++/Python integration stuff, the c++-sig is
probably the best place to ask questions.  They appear very active! Here's
a link to their mailing list:

I hope this helps!
