I think that the problem stems from people frequently using exceptions
incorrectly, and many of the C++ programmers probably haven't _ever_
seen them used correctly, since I don't think that it's very common
for C++ programs to define exception hierarchies - especially not
advanced ones like Java has. And when you see a lot of bad exception
code, that tends to turn you off to them, and it definitely doesn't
show you how to use them correctly.

Problem is, "no one" using exception handling correctly including
language experts. There is no consensus on where they are useful or not.
Neither articles nor codes help you.
Quite so. That's why slapping with the book won't help - there's no
book! :o)
