What is the right way to throw an exception?

  Plugins (as any other DLL) is not supposed to throw exceptions ever.


Yes, throwing directly (like in your code) is impossible. But there is a way to return an exception information from plugin using Status interface, which is passed as first parameter in that case. Pay attention - FB_PLUGIN_ENTRY_POINT has no such parameter and therefore is not expected to return exception information. (there are more reasons why exceptions not to be used in that call but let me not dive too deep here)

But if some plugin entry has first Status parameter you can throw FbException in it, it will be caught by thin API layer which actually invoked your plugin entry and delivered to the code which called plugin.
