The Dawn Of A New Error

Explore the evolution of error handling in C++ and potential future directions in this conference talk from ACCU 2019. Examine various approaches to expressing, propagating, and handling error conditions, including exceptions, Algebraic Data Types (ADTs), and the proposed "Zero-overhead deterministic exceptions." Compare different error-handling strategies, evaluate their trade-offs, and gain insights from experiences with similar mechanisms in other languages like Swift. Learn how to choose the most appropriate error handling strategy for your projects and prepare your code for potential future developments in C++ error handling.
